Manoj Sharma (Environmental & Occupational Health) published an article, "Utility of Multi-theory Model (MTM) to Explain the Intention for PAP Adherence in Newly Diagnosed Sleep Apnea Patients" in the journal, Nature and Science of Sleep, with coauthors from the Advanced Center for Sleep Disorders in Chattanooga, Tennessee and the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson. The article lends credence to Sharma's fourth-generation health behavior change theory that has multifarous applications. In this study, it was found to be useful for explaining CPAP/BiPAP use in sleep apnea patients.
