Assignment
Part I: Health Promotion: The Role of Theory and the ECological Perspective
You will conduct an in-depth analysis of a health promotion program/intervention for a specific population from a public health perspective.
A. Choose a public health topic for a specific population group and/or age group (Inactivity behavior in 30-40 year old male/female).
B. Provide a brief description of the topic. Discuss the magnitude of the problem (e.g., trends in incidence/prevalence, policies, etc.) and its public health significance.
C. Next, discuss the social determinants of the health problem for the specific group you selected.
Part II: Planning Health Promotion Programs
For this component of your SLP, based on the public health topic you selected in Module SLP (Inactivity behavior in 30-40 year old male/female), discuss the following:
A. What behavioral factors influence the problem? Which of these behaviors are more important and which are more amenable to health promotion/ intervention? Which behaviors would you design a program/intervention for based on these considerations? What environmental aspects seem to also affect the health issue you selected?
B. What are the predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors for the health behaviors you identified? Include any environmental influences.
C. What policies, resources, and circumstances can facilitate or hinder your proposed program/intervention on the factors you identified?
D. If you were doing a project in real life, and this would be a comprehensive plan, how would you gather your needs assessment data? What would be your data sources?
