Assignment # 1 Health Belief Models
A Health Belief Model is a model that can be used to guide health promotion and disease prevention programs. It is used to explain and predict individual changes in health behaviors. Health Behavioral theories include the Health Belief Model [HBM (Becker, 1974)], Theory of Reasoned Action [TRA (Ajzen and Fishbein, 1980)] and Theory of Planned Behavior [TPB] and others The Health Belief Model can be used to design short- and long-term interventions. You may use these or select other appropriate models, This assignment prepares you to address a societal health concern from an evidenced based perspective. Be careful to follow the guidelines and specific directives
1. Define selected Health Behavioral Theories/Models and identify major supporting components - Compare and Contrast HBM and HBT *
2. Relate the features of a selected Societal Health Concern (you might use HP 2030)
3. Analyze the interface between the health behavioral theory and the societal concern (issue)
4. Propose a possible approach to the issue from a Health Promotion Evidence Based** /Perspective
5. Writing is scholarly, organized and coherent presentation
6. APA format and style
Reminder review APA 7th ed , Academic writing tutorial and the PPT for Assignment # 1 with voiceover
HBM = Health Belief Models HBT= Health Belief Theories
* Define is beyond a statement but a theoretical, conceptual perspective A compare and contrast essay examines two or more topics (objects, people, or ideas, for example), comparing their similarities and contrasting their differences using the literature for support.
** EBP Evidence-based practice is a conscientious, problem-solving approach to clinical practice that incorporates the best evidence from well-designed studies, patient values and preferences, and a clinician's expertise in making decisions about a patient's care. It is more than a single study – review the EBP PowerPoint
No Bullet Formats in paper
References should be primarily peer reviewed professional journals (recent 5-7 years) preferably nursing, avoid international if possible
The four main types of academic writing are descriptive, analytical, persuasive and critical. Most academic writing is analytical. Analytical writing includes descriptive writing, but also requires you to re-organize the facts and information you describe into categories, groups, parts, types or relationships. Critical writing requires you to consider at least two points of view, including your own. You can have an opinion about the work. However you must provide evidence for your point of view, such as logical reasoning, reference to authoritative sources and/or research data.
Usually there is no page limitation - - 6-8 pages is average – so you must be very organized in presenting your content
1. Describe your models – adequately compare and contrast your models – similarities and differences
2. Select your Health Concern – which should relate to your practice population – but can be an area that is a primary concern to you. The description should address current state of the issue- disparities, area of focus i.e. a specific group.
3. Describe the interrelationship between the model and the societal health issue
4. Careful in the selection of your Health Promotion Evidence Based Approach

Uses obvious or irrelevant examples Often depends on unsupported opinion or personal experience Depends on clichés or overgeneralizations for support, or offers little evidence of any kind.

Inadequate in proposing the issue from a Health Promotion Perspective
Main points not well developed limited quality and quantity support. No evidence based perspective
Does not propose the issue from a Health Promotion Perspective
Does not develop with support. No indication of Evidence Based Practice
Writing is organized and coherent. (12.5%) Uses a logical structure appropriate to paper's subject, purpose, guides the reader through the chain of reasoning or
progression of ideas. Shows a logical progression of ideas but less sophisticated transitions Ideas arranged randomly rather than using any evident logical structure; paragraphs may relate to central idea, logic is not always clear. Overly simplified Random organization, lacking internal paragraph coherence and using few or inappropriate transitions.
Format and Style –APA (12.5%) Source material is incorporated logically & insightfully. Sources are documented accurately Grammar and structure rules consistently APA 7th ed applied May contain a few errors, but not impede understanding. Attempt recognized at formatting Source material incorporated adequately Contains either many mechanical errors that block the reader's understanding and ability to see connections between thoughts. Source materials? No attempt to format and style appropriately
*Compares and Contrast - A compare and contrast essay examines two or more topics (objects, people, or ideas, for example), comparing their similarities and contrasting their differences
**Evidence based models - Evidence-based practice is a conscientious, problem-solving approach to clinical practice that incorporates the best evidence from well-designed studies, patient values and preferences, and a clinician's expertise in making decisions. It is not a single research study or multiple studies addressing an issue – review Evidence based practice.
Overriding requirement – resources should primarily be recent peer reviewed professional journals preferably nursing – limited textbook use

Assignment # 1 Health Belief Models
Behavioral scientists have developed and evaluated models and theories meant to understand and influence health behavior. Scientists have become more interested in behavior change while seeking to understand why people engage in particular health behaviors (Laverack, 2017). Health behavior theories/models provide a framework for understanding why individuals engage in particular behaviors and how the behaviors can be altered to ensure better health outcomes. The identification of the determinants of behavior can help in developing strategies to address health issues. To evaluate the progression of the theories or models, the Health Belief Model (HBM), Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), and Health Behavior Theory (HBT) will be examined. The major focus will be on how the HBM can be used to promote health initiatives among ethnic minorities.
Health Behavioural Theories/Models
The HBM was developed to understand the failure of individuals to adopt prevention strategies or screening tests for the early detection of disease. The HBM suggests that an individual’s belief in a personal threat to an illness together with their belief in the effectiveness of the recommended health behavior can predict the likelihood the individual will adopt the behavior (Noushirvani & Mansouri, 2018). The TRA explains the relationship between attitudes and behaviors within human action. It predicts how people behave based on their preexisting attitudes and behavioral intentions. People engage in certain behaviors based on the outcomes they expect as a result of engaging in a particular behavior. The more positively an individual regards a particular behavior or action, the more they consider the behavior as being important to their friends and family, and the more they are likely to form intentions to engage in the behavior. The TPB explains all the behaviors over which individuals can exert self-control. The key aspect of the TPB is behavior intent, which is influenced by the attitude that the behavior will result in an expected outcome (Tapera et al., 2020). The HBT focuses on the role of individual beliefs in shaping health behaviors. It emphasized the essence of individual beliefs in shaping behaviors.
The HBM is based on the assumption that individuals are motivated to take action to mitigate health risks when they perceive the severity of the health issue. The HBT emphasized the role of social factors like attitudes in shaping the health behaviors of individuals. A major difference between the HBM and the HBT is their focus. While the HBM considers individual beliefs and perceptions, the HBT majors on the social aspects which influence health behavior (Noar & Zimmerman, 2005). The HBM considers individuals responsible for making decisions regarding their health behaviors based on the severity of the issue, while the HBT looks at the influences of society on health behavior. Another difference between the HBM and the HBT is intention versus action. The HBM demonstrates that intention is enough to make people take necessary actions. However, the HBT indicates that intention i...
