Compliance with medical therapy is widely researched yet unpredictable. When counseled by a dietitian to begin a low-fat (25%) diabetic diet, subjects significantly decreased fat intake but did not achieve the prescribed 25% fat level. The significantly lower fat intake after instruction identified the registered dietitian as an effective behavioral change agent. Six compliance predictors obtained at an initial interview accounted for 77% of the variance in compliance.
对药物治疗的依从性已得到广泛研究，但却难以预测。当营养师建议开始低脂（25%）糖尿病饮食时，受试者的脂肪摄入量显著降低，但未达到规定的25%脂肪水平。接受指导后脂肪摄入量显著降低，这表明注册营养师是有效的行为改变推动者。在初次访谈中获得的六个依从性预测因素解释了依从性差异的77%。
