Limitations of the WHO Definition of Health

-health is dynamic


-it is subjective


-its hard to measure


-is it even achievable

Infectious Diseases

-disease caused by a pathogen such as bacteria, viruses, etc ; the disease is contagious

Chronic Disease

-disease that manifest over time, may be long lasting or recurring, and isn't always apparent

The Epidemiological Triangle

-Host


-Agent


-Environment

Ecological Model

-Intrapersonal


-Interpersonal


-Institutional/Organizational


-Community


-Public Policy

How is the ecological model used to explain a health behavior?

-there are many influences of health behavior at both the micro- and macro- level


-these levels can interact


-when designing an intervention all levels should have intervention for the largest impact

Primary Prevention

-efforts are made to intercept the onset of disease, injury, or behavior


-like a vaccination, or bike helmet

Secondary Prevention

-focus is to minimize the consequences through early detection and intervention


-used when a disease process is diagnosed early


-like mammography, and smoking cessation programs

Tertiary Prevention

-mitigating the consequences of a disease after the fact


-occurs with a late diagnosis


Health Education

-learning experiences designed to predispose voluntary behavior that is conducive to health

Health Promotion

-combination of educational, political, regulatory, and organizational supports for actions and conditions of living conducive to health

Key Differences between H.E. and H.P.

-H.E. is voluntary while H.P. sometimes isn't


-H.P. isn't performed at the individual level but H.E. is

Intervention

-implies planned approach and is systematic


-a mix of behavior change strategies with a specific goal in mind

Obesity

-simply a positive energy imbalance

2 Ways obesity is tracked

-NHANES


-BRFSS

Consequences of Obesity

-metabolic syndrome


-restricted ventilation


-liver fat accumulation


-psychosocial morbidity

Goals of someone with Diabetes

-fix their diet


-become physically active


-check your blood glucose


-attend doctor's appointments

Elements of the Diabetic Exchange

-foods are grouped into basic types


-each group has a defined number of CHO/PRO/fat/calories

Starch Exchange

-15g CHO/ 3g PRO/ 0-1g Fat / 80 Calories

Fruit Exchange

-15g CHO/ 0g PRO/ 0g Fat/ 60 calories

Milk Exchange

-12g CHO/ 8g PRO/ 0-8g Fat/ calories vary



Skim - 0-3g Fat


2% - 5g Fat


Whole - 8g Fat

Non-Starchy Vegetables

-5g CHO/ 2g PRO/ 0g Fat/ 25 calories

Meat Exchange

- 0g CHO/ 7g PRO/ 0-8g Fat/ calories vary


Very Lean - 0-1g fat/ 35 calories


Lean - 3g fat/ 55 calories


Medium Fat - 5g fat/ 75 calories


High Fat - 8g fat/ 100 calories

Fat Exchange

-0g CHO/ 0g PRO/ 5g Fat/ 45 calories

Activity Factor

-1.2 for sedentary


-1.55 for active


-1.725 for very active

If you want to lose or gain weight

-subtract or add 500 calories to the end

Ranges for Macronutrients

CHO - 45-65%


PRO - 10-35%


Fat - 20-35%

How to start the Diabetic Exhcange

1)Fruit - 3-5


2)Milk - at least 3


3)NS Veg - 4-7


4)Starch - take carbs left and divide by 15


5)Protein - take protein left and divide by 7


6)Fat - take fat left and divide by 5


Skills for implementing individual level interventions

-ability to pretest the needs of the learner


-must by knowledgeable about diverse recommendations for different learners


-be sensitive to cultural background


-willing to follow up with learner

VARK

-Visual


-Auditory


-Reading/Writing


-Kinesthetic


-shows how to tailor the counseling according to the learning style of learner

Cultural Sensitivity

-paying attention to and incorporating one's culture into the program

Cultural Competence

-the possession of cultural knowledge and respect

Acculturatoin

-adjustment to a new culture from another culture

Integration

-integrating both cultures


Assimilation

-identifies solely with the new culture

Separation

-involved in only their native culture

Maginalization

-lack of involvement in either culture

Health Literacy

-the capacity of an individual understand basic health info and services

4 Elements of Health Literacy

-Fundamental Literacy


-Literacy pertaining to science and tech


-Community/Civic Literacy


-Cultural Literacy

Flesh Reading Ease Score

-the higher the number the lower the grade level

Cognitive vs Affective group level education interventions

Cognitive - lectures, case study, video presentation, self study


Affective - small group discussion, role play, psychodrama, simulation

Lecture Advantages and Disadvantages

Advant - good for large audience, provides summary of key points, help transfer new info


Disadvant - can be boring, no group interaction, no flexibility


Case Study Advant and Disadvant

Advant - effective for analytical skills, provides contextual info, helps one appreciate other's view points


Disadvant - personal bias, often cases are written poorly, requires seasoned facilitator

Role Play, psychodrama and simulation Advant and Disadvant

Ad - ability to change attitudes, builds confidence in ability to perform behavior, generates helpful discussion


Dis - people are sometimes shy, may lead to emotional outbursts, requires high level of facilitation skills

Each Behavior has 3 elements

Complexity - if it is simple or hard


Frequency - how often it happens


Volitionality - degree of control

3 rules of thumb for selecting determinants for health promotion

- they have research documenting a consistent impact on health behavior


-you have the ability to modify


-determinants should be housed in a theory

Theory

-set of interrelated concepts that present a systematic view of events by specifying relations among variables in order to explain and predict the event

Attributes of a theory

-have broad application


-testable


-abstract


-predictive power

Explanatory Theories

-helps describe what problems exist


-theory of the problem

Change Theories

-guide the development of interventions


-theory of action

Concepts

-building blocks to theories


-not measurable or observable

Constructs

-when concepts have been adopted for use in a particular theory they are constructs

Indicators

-when specific attributes are assigned to a construct it become an indicator

Mediating Variable Framework

-intervention don't necessarily target behaviors


-they target mediating variables to influence behavior

Value Expectancy Theory

-assume that people will change a behavior if they anticipate the personal benefits derived from the outcome

Behavior (construct 1)

-has a yes/no answer


-usually is observable


-ask if behavior is good or bad

Behavioral Intention (construct 2)

-perceived likelihood of performing behavior


- I intend to , I want to

Attitudes (Construct 3,4,5)

-refers to overall feeing toward given behavior


Behavioral Beliefs - belief the behavior is associated with certain outcomes


Evaluation of Outcome - value attached to behavioral outcome

Subjective Norm (Construct 6,7,8)

-refers to one's belief that people in their life think they should or should not do a behavior


Normative Beliefs - belief about whether they approve or disapprove


Motivation to Comply - motivation to adhere to what the person thinks they should do

Perceived Behavioral Control

-how much a person feels they are in command of behavior


Control Beliefs - internal or external factor that inhibit or facilitate the behavior


Perceive Power - how easy or difficult it is to perform behavior

TRA vs TRB

TRA - intentions are builtby influencing attitudes and subjective norms


TPB - intentions are built by TRA and perceived behavioral control

Information (IMBS Model)

-suggest that having a high degree of relevant knowledge is considered a prerequisite to behavior change


-it alone is not sufficient to change behavior

Motivation (IMBS Model)

-the combined influence of a person's attitudes toward a behavior and their motives to perform the behavior

Behavioral Skills (IMBS Model)

-are an integration of actual skill and self-efficacy
