Rik Crutzen
“It’s the behaviour, stupid”
Rik Crutzen is a Professor of Behaviour Change & Technology at the Department of Health Promotion, Care and Public Health Research Institute, Maastricht University, the Netherlands. A central theme in his work is the systematic development, implementation, and evaluation of behaviour change interventions (e.g., using and developing the Intervention Mapping approach) with a keen eye on the potential and challenges of using technology in such interventions. He has a strong focus on methodological and theoretical progress, especially to foster understanding of behaviour as a crucial first step in intervention development.
