Description
Summary:I am grateful for the opportunity to reflect and respond to the commentaries of Drs. Burkhart and Biglan. I am in agreement with most of what they say, particularly, the point that environment is a key determinant of health risk behavior and as such, should be a main focus for prevention action.Dr. Burkhart makes a number of points (Burkhart 2013), and Id like to respond to the two that I find the most significant and challenging to the ideas in my article (Foxcroft 2013).In his insightful and detailed commentary, Dr Burkhart makes a number of helpful suggestions for attributes that could possibly have been considered within the scope of the new taxonomy.
