Steps in Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum
- Unawareness or Ignorance
- Awareness
- Self-Interest
- Involvement
- Action
6.Habit or commitment
Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum:
1. Unawareness or Ignorance
client lacks information or has incorrect information about the problem
Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum:
2. Awareness
Client knows a problem exists but does not act on this knowledge
Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum:
3. Self- Interest
the client recognizes the problem and has an inclination towards change
Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum:
4. Involvement
Client attitude and feelings are affected, desire for additional knowledge
Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum:
5. Action
new behaviours directed toward solving the problem are instituted
Learning-Ladder or Decision-Making Continuum:
6.Habit or Commitment
new behaviours are practiced over a period, become a lifestyle change
Trans-theoretical model steps
- precontemplation
- contemplation
- preparation
- action
- maintenance
Trans-theoretical model:
1. Precontemplation
client has no intention of making a change within the next 6 months
Trans-theoretical model
2. Contemplation
client intends to make a change within the next 6 months
Trans-theoretical model:
3.Preparation
client intends to make a change within the next 30 days and has taken some behavioural steps In this decision
Trans-theoretical model:
4.Action
the client has practiced changed behaviours for less than 6 months
Trans-theoretical model:
5. Maintenance
the client has practiced changed behaviours for more than 6 months
learning domain: cognitive
concerned with the knowledge outcomes and the client’s intellectual abilities and skills
learning domain: affectice
concerned with the clients attitudes, interests, appreciation and modes of interest
learning domain: psychomotor
concerned with the client’s technical skills or motor skills
Health belief model is based on
based on the concept that one’s beliefs direct behaviour. (what they believe happens)
Health belief model: susceptibility
clients must believe they are susceptible to a particular disease/condition
Health belief model: severity
clients must believe that if they get the particular disease/condition, consequences will be severe
Health belief model: asymptomatic nature of disease
clients must believe that a disease may be present without their being fully aware of it
Health belief model: benefit of behaviour change
clients must believe that the effective means of preventing or controlling problem exists
agent-host-environment theory
theory that disease is a result of an imbalance in one or all three factors:
- agent
-host
-environment
Primary prevention
targets risk factors
involves techniques and agents to forestall onset and reverse the progress of the disease or
arrest the disease process before treatment becomes necessary
primary prevention intention is
to reduce or eliminate risk factors
primary prevention examples
plaque removal, use of fluoride, sugar discipline, sealants
secondary prevention
routine tx methods to prevent injury/disease once exposure to risk factors occurs. but still in early “preclinical” stage.
secondary prevention intention is
early identification [through screening and treatment]]
secondary prevention examples
screening and deep scaling, restorations, periodontal debridement, endodontics
teritiary prevention
involves using measures to replace lost tissues and rehabilitate patients so physical capabilities and/or mental attitudes are as near to normal as possible after secondary prevention has failed
tertiary prevention intention is
to prevent sequelae (after effect of disease)
tertiary prevention examples
prosthodontics, implants
primordial prevention
targets social and economic policies and factors that impact health
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory
suggest that inner force drives a person to action. and only when a client’s lower needs are met will the client become concerned about the higher-level needs
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs classified
- self actualization
- esteem
- love and belonging
- safety needs
- physiological needs
