Social Cue If-Then Plan
A social cue if-then plan uses a person's action as the trigger—partner prep, buddy text—raising adherence for shared meals and training.
A social cue if-then plan uses people as triggers—if my partner starts dinner prep, then I chop vegetables; if my training buddy texts running, then I confirm within five minutes. Social cues raise adherence for group walks and meal routines but need clear consent and timing.
Avoid vague when friends are free; name the signal.
Common questions
-

Add a temporal backup or switch to object cue redundancy. Social cues work best with explicit agreements, not assumed synchrony.
