An accountability partner is an individual who helps one stay committed to your goals. The individual can be a friend or acquaintance who checks in with you regularly to help you stay on track to meeting one's goals.
The term is also used in Christian settings, where two Christians (primarily men) agree to keep each other accountable to both themselves and God.
In a Dominican University study, people with written goals, action commitments and weekly progress reports to a friend saw a 80.95% improvement over control group which had no written goals, no action commitments and no weekly progress reports.[2][3][4]
