Theories in health, education
PENDER’S HEALTH PROMOTION THEORY
Bandura’s Self-Efficacy Theory
Health belief model
Green’s preceed-proceed model
focuses on three areas: individual characteristics and experiences, behavior-specific cognitions and affect, and behavioral outcomes.
→The theory notes that each person has unique personal characteristics and experiences that affect subsequent actions. The set of variables for behavior specific knowledge and affect have important motivational significance. The variables can be modified through nursing actions. Health promoting behavior is the desired behavioral outcome, which makes it the end point in the Health Promotion Model. These behaviors should result in improved health, enhanced functional ability and better quality of life at all stages of development. The final behavioral demand is also influenced by the immediate competing demand and preferences,
which can derail intended actions for promoting health.
PENDER’S HEALTH PROMOTION THEORY
Define self efficacy as an individual’s belief that he or she willbe able to accomplish a specific task. He believed that an essential component to accomplishing something is our confidence that we can. Bandura referred to self-efficacy as the mind’s self-regulatory function; it tells us when to try and when to stop. If you do not believe something is possible, you are less likely to attempt
the task and more likely to give up early if you do.
Bandura’s Self-Efficacy Theory
is a psychological model that attempts to explain and predict health behaviors. This is done by focusing on the attitudes and beliefs of individuals.
Health Belief Model
is a participatory model for creating successful community health promotion and other public health interventions. It is
based on the premise that behavior change is by and large voluntary, and that health programs are more likely to be effective if they are planned and evaluated with the active participation of those people who will have to implement them, and those who are affected by them.
Green’s Precede-Proceed Model
THE CHANGE PROCESS →“Nothing is permanent but change.”…
by Heraclitus (500 BC)
guidelines may help affect change in learners
1 Perceive the need for a change
2 Initiate group interaction
3 Implement chains one step at a time
4 Evaluate the overall results of the change process and make further adjustments
A. Teachers and students must be able to assess their own need for
change.
B.Progress requires modification, improvement or replacement of
obsolete knowledge through re-education and training.
C. Change is a necessary ingredient to modify or improve teaching and
learning to attain progress.
D. It can be done through identification and discussions with a specific
group of people and areas that need change
- Perceive the need for change
A. Identify external and internal forces for change. B. State the problem.
C. Identify constraints.
D. List change strategies or possible approaches to problem-solving.
E. Select the best change strategy.
F. Formulate the plan for implementation.
G. Develop or select tools for evaluating change.
Initiate group interaction
- Implement change one step at a time
A. Change must be done gradually one at a time in order to have an orderly and systematic process of change and to safeguard undesirable adverse effects of change.
B. Abrupt change can create further resistance or fear of change.
A. Identify strengths and weaknesses so as to provide remedial
measures and allow the
B. Gradual process of change to occur with less problems.
- Evaluate the overall results of the change process and make further adjustments
A. A strategy which assumes that learners are rational being with mental faculties and behave according to their personal beliefs, interests and motivation.
Empirical-Rational Strategy
A. This strategy assumes that learners always act consistently with their commitment to socio-cultural norms of behavior and are therefore willing to change for purposes of acceptance and recognition.
B. It is a self-made process and the extent of learning depends on the
learners’ prospective goals of behavior change
Normative or Re-educative Strategy
“Learners are eager to change if it is explained to them how they can benefit from the change process.”
..by De Young
A. A strategy which makes the learners comply with instructions given by the teacher as an authoritative figure in order to bring about change. B. It is more traditional in style as it often demotivates students
and could make teaching and learning processes offensive. (Bradshaw and Lowenstein: 2007).
. Power-Coercive Strategy
Barriers to change
1 culture
2 demographics
3  social, economic conditions, and environmental circumstances
4 state of wellness and development
A. Determines the beliefs and values important to the learner that may delineate her potential development for change.
B. Some cultures compete with change, others welcome change while some resist change.
C. The socio-cultural background and the learners’ personal characteristics influence the process of change.
Culture
A. Pertains to the learner’s age, gender, heredity and environment which may determine innate
Qualities and potential’s, as well as tendencies and level of responses to learning stimuli
Demographics
