A <strong>NICE</strong> <strong>future</strong>?<br />
Professor Mike Kelly<br />
Director, Public Health Excellence <strong>Centre</strong>, <strong>National</strong> Institute of<br />
Health and Clinical Excellence
<strong>NICE</strong> published work on Physical<br />
<strong>activity</strong><br />
• Four commonly used methods to promote <strong>physical</strong><br />
<strong>activity</strong> (2006) PH2<br />
• Physical Activity and the Environment. PH8<br />
• Physical Activity in children and young people. PH17<br />
• Physical <strong>activity</strong> in the workplace. PH13
Four commonly used methods to<br />
promote <strong>physical</strong> <strong>activity</strong> (2006) PH2<br />
• Partial update now underway.<br />
• Physical <strong>activity</strong> advice in primary care (publish April<br />
2013)<br />
• Consultation 4 th November till 2 nd December<br />
• Brief advice to promote <strong>physical</strong> <strong>activity</strong><br />
• Local infrastructure and systems that facilitate the<br />
delivery of brief advice
• <strong>NICE</strong> will reconsider the need to update the<br />
recommendations on exercise referral, following<br />
publication of the <strong>health</strong> technology assessment (HTA)<br />
review „The clinical and cost effectiveness of exercise<br />
referral schemes: a systematic review<br />
• <strong>NICE</strong> is developing new guidance on local measures<br />
to promote walking and cycling which will include an<br />
update of the recommendations on pedometers and<br />
walking and cycling schemes.

Walking and Cycling<br />
• <strong>health</strong> impacts of increasing walking and cycling<br />
• wider environmental and economic impacts arising from<br />
promoting walking and cycling as a form of travel (for<br />
instance, a reduction in carbon emissions or<br />
congestion).

The Dual Process system.<br />
• The reflective system.<br />
– Reflective, goal oriented system driven by our values<br />
and intentions requiring cognitive capacity or thinking<br />
space, which is limited.<br />
– Many traditional approaches to <strong>health</strong> promotion<br />
depend on engaging this system.<br />
– Often based on providing information designed to<br />
alter beliefs and attitudes, motivate people with the<br />
prospect of <strong>future</strong> benefits, or help them develop self<br />
regulatory skills.<br />
– At best, these approaches have been modestly<br />
effective in changing behaviour.
• The automatic, affective system that requires little or no<br />
cognitive engagement, being driven by immediate<br />
feelings and triggered by our environments.<br />
• This automatic system is the focus of nudge theory.
