Q

DESCRIBE THE ‘PERCEIVED BEHAVIOURAL CONTROL’ AS A COMPONENT OF THE THEORY OF PLANNED BEHAVIOR (TPB)?

A
  • THE EXTENT TO WHICH WE BELIEVE WE CAN CONTROL OUR BEHAVIOUR
  • DEPENDS ON OUR PERCEPTION OF INTERNAL FACTORS SUCH AS OUR OWN ABILITY AND DETERMINATION AND EXTERNAL FACTORS SUCH AS THE
    RESOURCES AND SUPPORT AVAILABLE TO US
  • HAS TO EFFECTS; 1) EFFECTS OUR INTENTION; THE MORE CONTROL WE THINK WE HAVE OVER A BEHAVIOUR, THE STRONGER OUR INTENTION TO PERFORM IT 2) AFFECTS OUR BEHAVIOUR DIRECTLY; IF WE PERCEIVE WE HAVE MORE CONTROL WE’LL TRY LONGER AND HARDER TO SUCCEED

Q

HOW DOES THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WE ARE SURROUNDED BY PERFORMING A CERTAIN BEHAVIOUR INFLUENCE OUR PERCEPTION OF A BEHAVIOUR?

A

IF AN INDIVIDUAL DOESN’T OBSERVE OR NOTICE MANY AROUND THEM ENGAGING IN A BEHAVIOUR, THEY ARE LESS LIKELY TO PERCEIVE IT AS A NORMATIVE BEHAVIOR AND BE LESS MOTIVATED TO COMPLY —> THIS CHANGES THEIR SENSE OF SUBJECTIVE NORMS AND RENDERS THEM LESS LIKELY TO PERFORM A BEHAVIOR

Q

HOW DOES MASS-MASKING ACT AS AN INFECTION CONTROL TOOL?

A

IT IS EITHER A PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE) TO PROTECT THE WEARER OR A MEANS OF SOURCE CONTROL (TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF ILLNESS)

18
Q

INDIVIDUALISM?

WHAT WAS THE FIRST COUNTRY TO INSTIL COMPULSORY FACE MASK POLICIES FOR HEALTHY PEOPLE IN PUBLIC?

A

CHINA

21
Q

COLLECTIVIST VS INDIVIDUALIST VALUES: WHICH ONES REDUCE THE TRANSMISSION RATE OF COVID MORE (THUS LEADING TO LOWER MORTALITY RATES)?

A

COLLECTIVIST (RESPOND QUICKER TO HEALTH CRISIS IN GENERAL)

22
Q

OPTIMISM BIAS?

A
  • AKA ‘THE ILLUSION OF INVULNERABILITY’
  • THE HUMAN BRAIN HAS AN INNATE BIAS THAT CONFERS A MISTAKEN BELIEF THAT OUR CHANCES OF EXPERIENCING NEGATIVE EVENTS ARE LOWER AND OUR CHANCES OF EXPERIENCING POSITIVE EVENTS ARE HIGHER THAN THOSE OF OUR PEERS

Q

RECKLESS TRANSMISSION?

A

Reckless Transmission is when someone did not try to prevent HIV from being transmitted. It does not mean that they did it deliberately.

28
Q

CURRENT HEGEMONIC MASCULINITY IS OFTEN TERMED?

A

TOXIC MASCULINITY

29
Q

CHARACTERISTICS OF TOXIC MASCULINITY? HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO COVID?

MEN EXPECTED TO BE PHYSICALLY STRONG, VIRILE AND INVULNERABLE (THUS SHOULD WITHSTAND COVID NATURALLY WITHOUT AIDS OF E.G. FACE COVERINGS WHICH CAN BE PERCEIVED AS A SYMBOL OF WEAKNESS)

30

DIFFERENCE IN HEART RATE AND OXYGEN SATURATION BETWEEN PREGNANT AND NON-PREGNANT WOMEN WEARING N95 RESPIRATORS (MASKS) FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME?

A

NONE! (NO EVIDENCE OF DIFFERENCE)

31
Q

HEALTH LITERACY?

A

THE COGNITIVE AND SOCIAL SKILLS WHICH DETERMINE THE MOTIVATION AND ABILITY OF INDIVIDUALS TO GAIN ACCESS TO, UNDERSTAND AND USE INFO IN WAYS WHICH PROMOTE AND MAINTAIN GOOD HEALTH

A
  • ENABLES CONSPIRACY THEORIES TO BE WIDELY CIRCULATED AND MAKE THIS INFO APPEAR MORE NORMALISED AND WIDELY ACCEPTED + REGULARLY CIRCULATED
  • -> INCREASED FAMILIARITY OF A STIMULI (INCLUDING INFORMATION) INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF ITS ACCEPTANCE)
33
Q

ANTI-INTELLECTUALISM?

A

THE GENERALISED DISTRUST IN EXPERTS AND INTELLECTUALS; PEOPLE TEND TO BE PERSUADED BY SPEAKERS THEY PERCEIVED TO BE KNOWLEDGEABLE (I.E.

  • TECHNIQUES FOR WEARING, REMOVAL AND DISPOSAL OF FACE MASKS WORRYING FOR THE AUTHORITIES (TO ENSURE SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS); BUT THESE TECHNIQUES CAN BE LEARNED THROUGH PUBLIC EDUCATION (GLOBAL PROMOTIONAL CAMPAIGNS EXIST)
  • HOWEVER, HAVE TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO MAKE THE TASK OF USING A MASK SEEM COMPLICATED, BECAUSE IT COULD MAKE IMPLEMENTATION EVEN MORE DIFFICULT
37
Q

PUBLIC HEALTH POLICY NEEDS TO CONSIDER TRADE OFF BETWEEN WHICH TWO ASPECTS WHEN THINKING ABOUT MASK WEARING?

A

EFFICACY AND COMPLIANCE (A MORE EFFECTIVE FACE COVERING ISN’T VERY USEFUL IF ONLY WORN BY A SMALL % OF THE POPULATION)

38
Q

WHICH ASPECTS NEED TO BE CONSIDERED FOR IMPLEMENTING FACE COVERINGS?

A
  • DIFFERENT APPROACHES (TYPE OF FACE COVERING, MATERIAL, WHEN/WHERE IS IT USED..)
