Case study 1 Flashcards
Health Belief Model constructs
- perceived susceptibility: subjective perception of ones own risk of contracting illness
- perceived severity: one belief of how severe the condition may be
- perceived barriers: component keeping you from taking action
- perceived benefits: components that would be beneficial to taking action
- cues to action: internal and external events that trigger action
- self-efficacy: ones confidence in ability to do behaviour
TPB
Attitude:
- behavioral beliefs: individuals belief about the outcome of performing behaviour (losing weight = positive)
- evaluations of behavioral beliefs: seeing your belief being done by others (you’ve seen ppl who loose weight, their health increases, so your belief stays)
Subjective norms:
- normative beliefs: whether important individuals approve or disapprove the performing of behaviour (friends disapprove smoking = less likely to smoke)
- motivation to comply: (making your friends happy, or stay in friendship with them)
perceived control:
- control beliefs: the presence of facilitators and barriers to behavioural performance
- perceived power: an individuals perceived power or the impact of each control factor to facilitate or inhibit the behaviour
Transtheoretical model of change - cognitive processes
- conscious raising: gain awareness of the causes, consequences and cures for a particular problem
- environment re-evaluation: assess how ones own personal behaviour affects ones social or physical environment, gain awareness that you can serve as a role model to others
- dramatic relief: experience an uncomfortable emotional reaction that is relieved by changings one views or actions
- self re-evaluation: assess ones own image
- self-liberation: believe that one can change and make commitment to act on belief
Transtheoretical model of change - behavioral processes
- counterconditioning: use healthier behaviour as substitutes
- stimulus control: remove cues for unhealthy habits and add prompts for healthier alternatives
- helping relationships: seek support from others
- reinforcement management: establish consequences for taking particular actions, and rewards for good actions.
- social liberation: take advantage of social supports and resources for healthier behaviour
Transtheoretical model of change - stages of change
- pre-contemplation: have no plans to change in next 6 months, defensive about behaviour, avoid info about negatives of behaviour, believe benefits outweigh costs
- contemplation: intend to change in 6 months, want to change but have low confidence.
- preparation: plans to change in next 30 days, identified a date, want help planning, ready to sign up for health program.
- action: have changed their behaviour some time in last 6 months, may relapse, are building confidence and skills needed for permanent change.
- maintenance: maintained behaviour for more than 6 months, some temptation for relapse, continue to maintain change.
- termination: have completely adopted new behaviour, feel confident to resist temptation.
relapse
Social Cognitive Theory - constructs
— reciprocal determinism: Personal characteristics, Environmental determinants, Behavioral determinants
— human agency:
-> capacity to symbolize: affected through indirect events. symbolically perceive events conveyed through messages, construct solutions, and evaluate possible outcomes
-> forethought ability: anticipate the likelihood consequences of outcomes
-> self-regulation: self monitoring, goal setting which result in judgement of ones own ability to take action
-> observational learning: learning relies on the model in their environment. is a result of capacity to symbolize
— factors influencing behaviour:
-> outcome expectation: beliefs about the outcomes that will result from performing the behaviour
-> incentive motivation: rewards = motivation to do behaviour. eccentric rewards; praise, tokens, self control, vicarious reward.
-> self efficacy: the belief on ability to execute behaviour
— collective self-efficacy:
— moral disengagement:
Social Networks
