What it means
A "Behavioral" intervention is an activity or approach — counselling, a support programme, an exercise plan, education, a digital coaching tool — rather than a medicine or device.
Why it matters if you take part
These studies usually ask for time and participation over weeks or months. Comparisons are often against usual care or a waiting list.
