As a solution, this paper examines approaches that isolate the components of behavioural influence and shows how these components can be placed within an adapted communication framework to aid the design and analysis of online behavioural change interventions. Finally, using this framework, a summary of behavioural change factors are presented from an analysis of 32 online interventions.enIntervention designCommunication theorySocial marketingMass-mediaBehavioural medicineBehaviourInfluenceBehavioural change interventionsBehavioural changeBehavioural influenceInternet-based communicationInterpersonal communicationHealth PsychologyEvidence-Based MedicineConference contribution
