Each of the theoretical, empirical, and experiential approach is useful in gaining insights about the health problem. However, each approach has limitations. Combining the three approaches is recommended to overcome the limitations, and is applied in the first step of the intervention mapping process. Intervention mapping is a process for designing behavioral interventions (Bartholomew et al., 2016), which is described in more detail in Chapter 4. The first step in intervention mapping focuses on the analysis of the problem to clearly specify the individual and contextual determinants of the problem. This is accomplished by applying the three approaches concurrently or sequentially, and integrating the theoretical, empirical, and experiential information to generate the theory or logic model of the problem.
