BELIEF MODELS Flashcards
Kasl and Cobb 1966
Health Behaviours
behaviours which aim to prevent disease
Kasl and Cobb 1966
Illness Behaviours
behaviours aimed to seek remedy
ie doctors
Kasl and Cobb 1966
Sick Role Behaviours
Behaviours in order to get better
ie medicine
Matarazzo 1984
behavioural pathogens
health impairing
ie smoking
Matarazzo 1984
behavioural immunogens
health protective
ie health check
Kasl Cobb/Matarazzo
what are health behaviours overall
behaviours which determine the health status of an individual
What do the social cognitive models of health behaviour propose overall
look at the predictors and precursors of health
beh governed by expectancies, incentives and social cognitions
based on SEU -
beh is the consequence of weighted percieved costs and benefits
humans are rational information processors
what are the three main social cognitive models of health behaviour
health belief model
protection motivation theory
theory of planned behaviour
health belief model by..
rosenstock 1966
what does the health belief model predict overall
the likelihood that a health behaviour is performed
core beliefs of the health belief model
susceptability severity costs + beneftis cues to action health motivations percieved control
HBM susceptability
percieved likelihood of contracting disease
HBM severity
illness severity - how bad is the illness percieved to be
HBM cost and benefits
cost: neg consequences ie social/financial
benefit: pos consequences ie better health
HBM cues to action
internal (ie symptom) or external cues (ie advice)
HBM health motivation
revised HBM (becker and rosenstock 1987) concern over health and problems
HBM control
revised HBM (becker and rosenstock 1987) percieved control over disease severity
studies assessing the role of HBM
Budd, hughes and smith 1996 (meds)
Norman and Brian 2005 (BSE)
Budd Hughes and Smith 1996 HBM
AIM
can HBM predict antipsychotic medication compliance in schizophrenic population
Budd Hughes and Smith 1996 HBM
MEDTHOD
20 compliant and non complaint schiz
HBM Q and health locus of control scale
Budd Hughes and Smith 1996 HBM
CLASSIFICATION
compliant: took meds when offered to them, went to every appt etc
non compliant: rarely took meds, refused to attend etc
Budd Hughes and Smith 1996 HBM
RESULTS - COMPLIERS
believed themselves more susceptable to relapse
percieved relapse as more severe
believed medication benefit and prevent relapse
Budd Hughes and Smith 1996 HBM
RESULTS - NON COMPLIERS
did not believe themselves susceptible to relapse
Budd Hughes and Smith 1996 HBM
REULTS - problems
compliance due to mental state? - controlled for
discrepancy in compliance definition compared to other studies - strict, therefore large difference and may explain maximised diff between groups
- construct not reliably defines across studies - generalisable?
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
types of compliance
infrequent
appropriate
excessive
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
infrequent BSE compliance
unlikely to detect early
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
appropriate BSE compliance
detect early
monthly checks
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
excessive BSE compliance
hinder early detection
- more checks but less thorough
- identify more benign - increase anxiety - check MORE
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
additional constructs
subconstructs of percieved barriers
- practical (time/expense) and psychological (pain/embarassment) (sheeran and abraham 1996)
self efficacy (rosenstock, stretcher and becker 1988)
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
AIM
HBM predict BSE at 9m follow up
role of SE?
role of worries(psych) or past?
can HBM be extended?
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
METHOD
RCT - high risk breast cancer women
T1 (control and exp) - HBM Q, clinic (exam, advise, genetic assessment and option for annual review)
(only exp) - specialist geneticist consultation and risk assessment
T2 - follow up Q
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
FINDINGS - infrequent > appropriate and excessive
T1 BSE predictive of T2 BSE
discriminated by SE, psych barriers, and percieved benefits
- higher SE barriers, higher emotional barriers and lower percieved benefits
HBM TO BE EXTENDED: INCLUDE SE AND EMOTIONAL COMPONENTS
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
FINDINGS - PAST
past BSE strongest predictor of group membership
**barriers/benefits still strong when past controlled for
- habitual?
- shape future beliefs? -determine cog?
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
FINDINGS - excessive>infreq/appropriate
SE, cancer worries and percieved severity most powerful
(lower SE barriers, high anxiety and high severity)
cause hypervigilance
Norman and Brian 2005 HBM
FINDINGS- problems
fail to distinguish proficiency from frequency (is there a difference in knowledge about disease/BSE and ones motives/psychological factors?)
no cues to action
- monthly prompts increase BSE in all groups?
- influence of environ cues ie when/where performed
Protection motivation theory by..
Rogers 1975
PMT overall predicts
likelihood protective health behaviours are performed
- positive inclinations
expansion of HBM
including an affective component
PMT core beliefs
severity susceptibility response efficacy self efficacy fear
PMT severity
percieved seriousness of illness/disease
PMT susceptibility
percieved likelihood will contract the disease
PMT response efficacy
how influential beh is in determining outcome
PMT self sefficacy
belief in own ability to perform behaviour
