- Psychological Factors and Physical Illness
During the 60's and 70's, behavior
modification demonstrated its usefulness
in treating a wide range of psychological
problems. Behavioral oriented therapists
eventually began applying their powerful
and reliable behavior change methods to
traditionally "medical" problems: obesity,
smoking, etc. As a result, there was a
growing recognition in the medical field
of the role that behavior plays in
physical health.

- The Center for the Advancement of Health
The most intractable health problems of
today will never be solved without full
recognition of how intimately our health
is linked to our attitudes,emotions,
thoughts, behaviors, social relations and
economic status.To achieve a significant
role in mainstream health care, behavioral
approaches will need the support of
vigorous scientific research. That
research is being done, but it is far from
complete, and it is scattered across the
scientific landscape.
