I just noticed the new additions to the "applications" section and am confused by the inclusion of co-occurring disorders and homeless services. MI is an approach appropriate to discussions of behavior change, which is why substance abuse, adherence to treatment in chronic illness, and health coaching were there before. Gambling is a great example, and why I'm not questioning its inclusion. In co-occurring disorders, the MI components of a patient-practitioner conversation would be changing substance use behavior and adherence to treatment for the mental illness - both of which were already covered. In services to homeless individuals, one would assume that the target behaviors would be similar (adherence to treatment of chronic conditions, substance use, etc.). Why include these separately?Cknoepke (talk) 14:31, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
The article seems to focus on the philosophy more than the techniques of MI. I've just created Decisional balance sheet to explain one example of a technique. Anyone want to work with me on developing more examples of techniques?--Peter cohen (talk) 18:22, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
I've changed the sentence "The researchers reported and excluded clients if they reported insufficient residential stability." by removing the words in bold, because it's not clear what this means, and could be misleading. I see two interpretations:
I couldn't replace this by anything, as I don't have access to the source, so can't quote the number of clients they excluded. So if somebody does, this might be a useful small addition to the information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Evgeni Sergeev (talk • contribs) 12:54, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi all, we are a group of Oral Health Therapist students from La Trobe Univeristy. As a task we have been asked to contribute and edit to this page on Motivational Interviewing as part of our subject. If there are any comments or feedback you would like to leave, please do so as we are not experienced in editing a Wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JTawadros (talk • contribs) 16:40, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

). Thanks, Biogeographist (talk) 17:45, 21 June 2019 (UTC)I'm new to Wikipedia and this topic is interesting to me. What are the ongoing plans for additions to this page? I'm especially interested in the applications section. Is anyone currently working on tying in the research articles into the "narrative" of explaining the applications of motivational interviewing?

The section titled "motivation" in the "limitations" section does not seem like a limitation of MI to me. In particular, it states: "Professionals attempting to encourage people to make a behavioral change often underestimate the effect of motivation. Simply advising clients how detrimental their current behavior is and providing advice on how to change their behavior will not work if the client lacks motivation..."
This seems like the whole point of motivational interviewing--to assist clients in finding and building their intrinsic motivation for behavioral change, rather than just to try to convince them of it.
I'm tempted to delete that subsection, but I'm new to Wikipedia editing and would appreciate others' thoughts. PenguinyPenguiny (talk) 02:30, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
