Primary Prevention
GOAL: to prevent diseases from occurring
● These activities are implemented while individuals are healthy and have not yet developed disease
○ Interventions that promote health and prevent disease
○ Aimed at individuals who are susceptible but have no discernible disease/pathology
● No one is sick
What are some examples of primary prevention?
● Healthy eating ● Exercise ● Clean water ● Immunizations ● Adequate sleep ● Bike helmet use ● Education programs ● Safe sexual practices
Secondary prevention
GOAL: to detect disease in its early stages
● These activities are aimed at:
○ Detection of disease in the early stages before clinical signs appear
○ Reversing or reducing the severity of disease or providing a cure
● The goal is to either reverse the process (cure) or reduce the severity of the disease
What are some examples of secondary prevention?
EXAMPLES OF SECONDARY PREVENTION ● Vision and hearing screenings ● Blood pressure screenings ● Pap smears ● Testing cholesterol ● Immunoglobulins ○ Immunizations are primary prevention ● Using antibiotics for an infectious disease ● Surgery where complete recovery is expected ● Screening for drug use REMEMBER: WE ARE LOOKING FOR DISEASE!!!
What is tertiary prevention
GOAL: to improve the course of the disease, reduce disability, or rehabilitate
● Activities are directed towards people with clinically apparent disease
● The expectation is that these individuals will NOT return to their pre-illness level of functioning
● We are trying to limit the amount of diseases or disability a person experiences
What are some examples of tertiary prevention?

Trust vs. Mistrust
-occurs during infancy (0-18 months)
o If the care the infant receives is consistent, predictable and reliable, a sense of trust develops which is transferrable to other relationships, allowing a sense of security when feeling threatened
-If needs are met in a timely manner –> trust
-If their needs aren’t met –> mistrust & will become apathetic
o A sense of hope develops from successful completion of this stage
Sensorimotor Stage
o Intelligence demonstrated through motor activity
o Knowing the world is based on physical experience
o Object permanence, memory, and causality begin to develop around 7 months
May experience separation anxiety due to object permanence
• If something or someone is not there they don’t exist
• Object permeance- when kids know that objects continue to exist even though they can no longer be seen or heard
Cannot recognize different people
Object premanence
the understanding that objects continue to exist even when they are not seen
What age group is not applicable with Kohlberg’s stage?
infancy
Autonomy vs. shame and doubt
o Skills and abilities emerge that illustrate the child’s growing sense of independence and autonomy
If children are encouraged and supported in their increased independence become more confident and secure in their own ability to survive in the world
If children are criticized, overly controlled, or not given the opportunity to assert themselves begin to feel inadequate, become overly dependent upon others, lack self-esteem, and feel a sense of shame or doubt in their abilities
What age does autonomy vs shame and doubt occur?
18-36 months in the toddler age
Pre-conventional/obedience and punishment
an action is wrong if one gets punished for it
o Sense of morals is externally motivated
What age does the pre-conventional/obedience and punishment occur?

Animism
inanimate objects are capable of actions and have lifelike qualities
ex) stars twinkle in the sky because they are happy
Artificialism
the belief that environmental characteristics are attributed to human actions or interventions
ex) thunder is angels blowing
Transductive reasoning
does not understand cause and effect
Reasons from specific to specific, drawing a relationship between separate events that are unrelated
• If the child wishes someone harm, and then something bad happens, the child believes they caused the event
initiative vs. Guilt
o Child regularly interacts with other children
o Play is pivotal
