OBESITY
Data reported in this paper are from the questionnaires that midwives completed pre- and post-intervention. There were no existing validated questionnaires that could be used to measure the SCT constructs as the questions had to be tailored to the guideline specific behaviours. The NICE guideline recommendations relevant to community midwives’ practice were used as the basis for the questionnaire development to define midwives’ behaviours and SCT constructs. As the guideline recommendations were not written as explicit behaviours, they were adapted to define the Target population, Action, Context and Time (TACT) [Health professionals’ attitudes were identified as evidence-based determinants of their behaviour. These were primarily related to negative obesity stereotypes and prejudices which are known to be informed, in part, by a lack of knowledge about the causes of obesity [
