Summary

Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) is a systematic intervention that focuses on eliciting and strengthening a person's intrinsic motivation to change. MET is rooted in motivational interviewing principles, emphasizing empathy, autonomy, and the evocation of the patient's own motivations for change. The therapy typically involves several sessions where therapists help patients identify personal goals, explore ambivalence towards change, and develop actionable plans to achieve their desired outcomes.

Detailed description

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly among the elderly. Managing COPD effectively in geriatric patients requires addressing not only the physiological aspects of the disease but also the psychological and motivational factors that can influence treatment adherence and overall well-being. Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET) is a counseling approach designed to help individuals enhance their motivation to change and engage in healthier behaviors. This study explores the impact of MET on motivation, resilience, anxiety reduction, and COPD outcomes in geriatric patients.
