      Analysts from many disciplines believe that the dollar, as well as the human, costs associated with such currently preventable dysfunctions as lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, drug and alcohol abuse, and vehicle accidents are a needless waste of this country's human and fiscal resources. A consensus has emerged that the behavior of the individual is today's unexplored frontier in the study and understanding of health (e.g., Americans use or abuse tobacco, alcohol, and salt, practice poor dental hygiene, fail to use their automobile seat belts, and so on). Psychology is a discipline with one hundred years of experience in the study of individual behavior, including behavior change. It is asserted that every specialty of academic, scientific and professional psychology has within its ranks individual psychologists with the potential to help map some of the important landmarks in this beckoning and relatively unexplored frontier, the health behavior of individuals.
