Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When the spouse attributed the MI to internal factors (such as poor lifestyle choices), it helped the patient take responsibility and make behavior changes that led to long-term success in rehabilitation. External attributions may lead to feelings of helplessness and lack of control, hindering the patient's motivation for change. Hereditary factors are not relevant to the patient's own behavior change.
