Health Promotion

the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve, their health

Broader approach that includes creating supportive environments to enable healthy behaviors.

Health education

providing accurate health information and teaching health skills to help people make healthy decisions

Goes beyond learning experiences that provide people with knowledge and skills to improve their health behaviors.

PRECEDE-PROCEED Model

Comprehensive health planning model that addresses both behavioral and environmental facotrs inlfuencing health

Precede: identifies the root cuase of health issues by analyzing social, epidemiological, and education factors

Proceed: focuses on policy implementation and program evaluation

SMART objectives

Specific

Measurable

Achievable

Relevant

Time-bound

Theory of Planned Behavior

Intention drives behavior: attitude, social norms, and perceived control.

Health intervention

an act performed for, with or on behalf of a person or population whose purpose is to assess, improve, maintain, promote or modify health, functioning or health conditions

Ecologial Model

Focuses on multiple layers of influence (individual, interpersonal, community, societal) that effect health behavior

Application: encourages designing interventions that address various levels of influences, beyond just individual behaviors.

Social Cognitive Theory

Behavioral change results from self-efficacy, observational learning, and outcome expectations.

→ people learn from others and self: self-efficaicy, observational learning, and outcome expectations

Health Belief Model

What is it? Explains and predict individual health behvaiors by focusing on attidues and beliefs of people.

How it works? Suggests that a person's belief in a personal threat of an illness or diseasr, together with their belief in the effectivness of the recommended health behavior, will predcit the likelihood of adopting behavior.

Community-based health intervention

Programs and initiatives that aim to improve the health and well-being of specific population groups within a local community by preventing dysfunction and promoting well-being, often involving community participation and collaboration

Cultural Adaptation in Health Intervention

using specific languages, styles of music, dance styles, etc. in order to make the population feel culturally involved

Intervention Mapping

Framework for designing helath behvaior intervention based on theory and evidence

1. Needs Assessment

2. Changes Objectives

3. Theories and Methods

4. Program design

5. Implementaiton

6. Evaluation

Generalized Model

1. assessing needs

2. setting goals and objectives

3. developing interventions

4. implementing interventions

5. evaluating results

Health Promotion characteristics

Focuses on community-level or policy changes that make healthy choices more accessible

Includes environmental, organizational, and policy efforts

Goal - make healthy behaviors easier and more widespread

Community Engagement Strategies

Engage key stakeholders, government, healthcare providers to ensure the intervention is uspported and has necessary resources.

Fit Families Program

Addresses the underdeveloped FMS in children with ASD, 12-week family oriented program to improve FMS in children with ASD. Parents are brought on as coaches and learn how to teach their child-specific FMS skills.

SMART Goals

Specific, measurable steps: How do we measure success?

Define what you want to achieve, but they must connect to the instruments used for measurement.

Needs assessment inform Smart goals→ identify key challenges, health disparities, and resource gaps in a population

Environmental Health Intervention

Focus on preventing disease and promoting health by creating healthy environments, encompassing actions like providing safe water, air, and food, and addressing hazards like toxic waste and lead.

Steps of Health Promotion Intervention

1. Conduct→ needs assessment

2. Identify → health issue and population of interest

3. Set → clear goals and measurable objectives

4. Design → intervention

5. Develop → budget and allocate resources

6. Plan → data collection and evaluation

7. Implement → intervention and monitor progress

Social Determinants of Health

The conditions in which people live, work, learn, and play that influence their health and well-being

Importance of planning models in health

Provide a structured, systematic approach to designing, implementing, and evaluating programs, ensuring they are evidence-based, effective, and address the needs of the target population

Role of Community Engagement in health interventions

Community members should play an active role in the health iniative

They should serve as a cocreators, advocates, and liasions, helping to shape the programs design, promote it's adoption and provide ongoing feedback.

They can share thoughts and ideas to help make sure the program fits their needs and values

Essential for making the program culturallyt relevant and ensuring that the prgram lasts longer because it resonates with the community.

Ethical considerations in health interventions

fully informed, informed consent, define purpose, making sure everyone knows what is happening

Environmental Structuring - Restructuring

modifying the physical environment to influence behavior or promote sustainability, ranging from simple changes to complex infrastructure projects

Self-Monitoring

a personality trait and a strategy that involves observing and recording one's own behaviors, thoughts, and emotions to gain awareness and potentially modify them

Mechanism of Action

describes how a drug or other substance exerts its effects in the body

Behavior change Technique

strategies used to help individuals modify their behaviors to promote better health or achieve specific goals

Barrier Identification & Problem Solving

involves recognizing obstacles that hinder progress and then developing strategies to overcome them, often through a structured process of definition, diagnosis, solution implementation, and sustainment

Needs assessment

A systematic process used to identify and understand the health problems, gaps, and priorities of a target population in order to guide program planning and intervention design.

Process evaluation

An evaluation that examines how an intervention is implemented, including whether activities are delivered as planned, reach the intended audience, and operate efficiently.

Gantt charts

Visual project management tools that display tasks, timelines, and deadlines, showing when activities start and end and how they overlap over time.

Health equity

The principle of ensuring everyone has a fair and just opportunity to attain their highest level of health by addressing social, economic, and structural barriers to health.

Outcome evaluation

An evaluation that measures the short- and medium-term changes in knowledge, behaviors, attitudes, or skills that result from an intervention.

Formative evaluation

Evaluation conducted during program development or early implementation to improve design, materials, and delivery before full-scale implementation.

Health intervention strategies

Planned actions or approaches used to improve health outcomes, such as education, policy change, environmental modifications, or community-based programs.

Evidence based interventions

Programs or strategies that are supported by scientific research demonstrating their effectiveness through rigorous studies or systematic reviews.

Quantitative data collection method

A method of collecting numerical data that can be statistically analyzed, such as surveys, questionnaires, biometric measures, or attendance records.

Impact evaluation

An evaluation that assesses the long-term effects of an intervention and determines whether observed changes can be attributed directly to the program.

Budget

A financial plan that outlines estimated costs and funding sources required to implement and sustain a program or intervention.

Self determination Theory (SDT)

A behavioral theory that emphasizes the role of autonomy, competence, and relatedness in motivating individuals to adopt and maintain healthy behaviors.

Ecological interventions

Interventions that target multiple levels of influence on health—individual, interpersonal, organizational, community, and policy—to create sustainable behavior change.
