eVITAL Health stage: good (↑), acceptable (—), needs improvement (↓), the Prochaska stage of change (in domains where this is highly relevant and the global impression rating is acceptable or needs improvement): precontemplation (P), contemplation (C), preparation (PP), action (A), maintenance (M), termination (T), relapse (R). Subjects were 11 adult volunteers in Antequera, Spain, who reported themselves to be healthy. Assessment occurred in 2008.
