Abstract
An important measure of the validity and utility of basic behavioral resear ch is the extent to which ii can be applied in real life. Basic research on behavioral momentum and the model unifying choice and resistance to change (Nevin & Grace 1999) has stimulated the development of behavioral technolo gies aimed at increasing the persistence of adaptive behavior and decreasin g maladaptive choices.
