According to the Hayden (2014), it “is by far the most commonly used theory in health education and health promotion” (p. 65). Before the HBM was developed, the social psychologists wanted to know why most of the people are not willing to participate in checkups for diseases, while some people are willing to (National Cancer Institute, 2005).

Perceived susceptibility is an evaluation of the risk or knowledge of a person getting a disease (Hayden, 2014). This is the most important part of the Health Belief Model. Only
HEALTH BELIEF MODEL 3 when the people believed that they are at risk of a certain disease, then they will most likely take prevention to prevent getting the disease (Hayden, 2014).
Perceived benefit is where a person believes that the action of the new behavior can reduce the risk of a disease (Hayden, 2014). People will only start an action of a new behavior when they realize that the new behavior will actually benefit them, and will also decrease the chances of getting a disease (Hayden, 2014).
Perceived barrier is the reasons that will stop a person to do the action of the new behavior (Hayden, 2014). People have barriers that they cannot overcome, but in order to start a new behavior, people has to believe in the benefits and allow the barriers to be overcome (Hayden, …show more content…
The purpose of the study was to see if the Health Belief Model and the educational intervention sessions will help with the nurses to prevent low back pain (Sharafkhani, et al, 2016). 100 nurses were selected in stages to participate in the study: 50 nurses in the control group and 50 nurses in the intervention group (Sharafkhani, et al, 2016). The nurses from the control group were given the self-reported questionnaire before and after 12 weeks of study (Sharafkhani, et al, 2016). The nurses from the intervention groups were given a self-reported questionnaire before and after the 12 week educational intervention sessions (Sharafkhani, et al, 2016). After the 12 weeks of study, the score of the questionnaire of the control group did not change a lot, but the score of the in the intervention group did.
