Weight loss refers to the reduction of the total body weight or body mass in the context of physical fitness, health and medicine. It is conceivable that heavy weight causes some diseases that include varicose vein, hypertension and heart attack. The issue has numerous myths around it, with some incremental beliefs based on prosocial matters other than dietary a fact that has raised many contentious issues regarding the subject. In a study conducted by Finkel and Burnette to explore and examine the primary effect of intervention condition on weight-loss within a period, much light has been shaded on the controversy between incremental beliefs and healthy dietary lifestyle. Therefore, this paper seeks to underscore and analyses the intervention conditions that helps dieters to manage body weights at the expense of severe dieting setbacks.
Ideally, the longitudinal experiment set to investigate dietary intervention of weight loss employed some research method to come up with valid findings on the topic of study (La and Hoopla digital, 2015). The primary purpose of carrying out this research was to find out and investigate fundamental consequences on intervention conditions so as to reduce heavy body weight. Moreover, there was a quest for knowledge and understanding incremental beliefs concerning the massive weight loss. Our longitudinal intervention demonstrated that both the progressive and the knowledge interventions buffer against the natural trend toward weight gain. Additionally, for participants for whom the intervention successfully inculcated an increase in progressive beliefs, it even reversed this trend; individuals in the incremental condition who adopted more additional beliefs lost weight (Woodall, 2011).
Ultimately, the researcher employed some research methods in data collection during the study. From among the audience, the investigator obtained data used tools such as sampling and questionnaire and legitimate interviews. Besides, the researcher used a tool a school reading of politicians and understanding his collogue that is the majority of the pupils falling in the line of duty exhausted. The packing, branding and transportation of the evince with the account such an analysis is not theoretically sensible because the hypothesis was that condition would influence weight and change in incremental beliefs in different ways. Specifically, regarding the dependent measure, the theory posits that participants in the additional condition would gain less weight than participants in the control condition and if anything, that participants in the knowledge condition would weigh least of all.
Ethically, incremental beliefs can be morally upright depending on the community norms and customs. The progressive belief is a good substitution of medical, dietary, and more efficient due to its natural nature (Hewstone et al. 2012). Furthermore, the system is more efficient compared to other measures like medical interventions that employ the use of toxic and dangerous chemical with numerous side effects to the human heath hence unethical. Incremental belief is a fundamental ethical issue since it influences the behaviour of an individual thus capable of ruining or moulding the life of a person to the better. Since the incremental beliefs touch directly on people’s behaviour, it can only be a threat if its influence is negative that is when unethical virtues are inculcated into the mind of the respondent that might result into social decadence. In chapter 11, many emphases have been laid on time consciousness and a deliberate choice of beliefs as essential requirements for the incremental theories to work out efficiently. Thus, the personal quality required for the betterment of this process is time consciousness and obedience.
In conclusion, the article depicts that heavy body weight caused by some different measures such unregulated diet, the natural increase in weight and medical interventions is a threat to human life due to the many acute conditions associated with it. Hence, the introduction and execution of a natural prosocial behavior system, incremental beliefs to help manage the condition is a great achievement.
