Which stage is NOT part of the change talk stages?

The stages of change talk include precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance. These stages are associated with an individual's motivation and readiness to change a behavior. The stage of indifference is not included in this framework because it suggests a lack of concern and motivation for change. In contrast, problem recognition, concern, and optimism all reflect varying levels of motivation and engagement in the change process. Therefore, the stage of indifference is not part of the change talk stages.
