Answer to Question 2

A public commitment is a public statement of the behavior change goal. A public commitment may be involved in the success of a behavioral contract in the following way: If the contractee has a history of reinforcement of correspondence between saying and doing, then the act of stating the target behavior should increase the likelihood of engaging in the target behavior. In addition, other individuals who are aware of the contract commitment may then prompt or cue the individual to engage in the target behavior at the appropriate times, or providing reinforcing or punishing consequence when they observe the contractee engaging in the behavior.
