Is there any good up to date articles on social cognitive therapy and food/nutrition habits or nutritional food label education considering the constructs of self efficacy, self regulation, self reflection and forethought?
These may not all be new enough for your requirements, or quite what you need, but hopefully some more members will also respond to your question:

This paper is also quite old now, but may be relevant:

Thank you so much. I a working on my dissertation and have to have dated PR journal 3yrs forward. I really like the last one...go figure. Any suggestion on key words, maybe that is one reason for the road block. Thanks again.
I don't know the title of her paper, but Professor Hiroko Isaka of Nihon University's College of International Relations in Shizuoka, Japan has researched cognitive theory's efficacy in motivating diabetic women to maintain a strict diet regimen.
My pleasure Cynthia, and sorry for the "slight" delay in replying, but I honestly didn't remember responding to your question or notice your last message until just now. I hope your research went well or is going well if it's ongoing.
