Health Ed Flashcards
are the non-medical factors that influence health outcomes.
Social Determinants of Health (SDH)
deliberate interventions that involve sharing information and experiences to meet intended learner outcome in the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains according to an education plan.
Teaching
a change in behavior that can be observed or measured and that occurs at any time or place from stimuli.
Learning
a process of assisting people to learn health-related behaviors that they can incorporate into everyday life with the goal of achieving optimal health and independence in self-care.
Patient education
the process of influencing the behavior of nurses by producing changes in their knowledge, attitudes, skills to help them maintain and improve their competencies for the delivery of high-quality care to the consumer.
Staff education
It is a systematic, sequential, logical, scientifically based planned course of action, consisting of interdependent operations: teaching, and learning; and involves interdependent players: the teacher and the learner.
The Education Process
- Any combination of learning experiences designed to facilitate voluntary adaptations of behaviour conducive to health.
Health Education
- Is a science and a profession of teaching health concepts to promote, maintain and enhance one’s health, prevent illness, disability and premature death perspective.
Health Education
nursing was first acknowledged as a unique discipline, the responsibility for teaching has been recognized as an important role of nurses as caregivers.
Mid 1800
the founder of modern nursing, was the ultimate educator. Not only did she develop the first school of nursing, but she also devoted a large portion of her career to teaching nurses, physicians, and health officials about the importance of proper conditions in hospitals and homes to improve the health of people.
Florence Nightingale
public health nurses in the United States clearly understood the significance of the role of the nurse as teacher in preventing disease and in maintaining the health of society.
1900s
patient teaching has been recognized as an independent nursing function. Nurses have always educated others—patients, families, colleagues, and nursing students.
2000s
PURPOSE OF HEALTH EDUCATION
To positively influence the health behaviour and health perspectives of individuals and communities for them to develop self-efficacy to adopt health lifestyles resulting to healthy communities.
is a permanent change in mental processing, emotional functioning, skill and behavior as a result of exposure to different experiences.
Learning
is a coherent framework of integrated constructs and principles that describe, explain, or predict how people learn, how learning occurs and what motivates people to learn and change
Learning theory
Learning Theories - Psychological (6)
- Behaviorist
- Cognitive
- Social
- Adult LT
- Humanistic
- Psychodynamic
proponent of behaviorist theory, emphasized the importance of observable behavior in the study of human beings.
John B. Watson
defined behavior as muscle-movement; associated with Stimulus-Response psychology.
Behaviorist
view learning as the result of stimulus conditions (S) in the environment and the learner’s responses (R) that follow.
Behaviorist
emphasizes the importance of stimulus conditions and the associations formed in the learning process.
Respondent conditioning/Association/classical or Pavlovian conditioning
a technique based on respondent conditioning that is used by psychologists to reduce fear and anxiety in their clients.
Systematic desensitization
the tendency of initial learning experiences to be easily applied to other similar stimuli.
Stimulus generalization
With more & varied experiences, individuals learn to differentiate among similar stimuli
Discrimination Learning
a useful respondent conditioning concept that needs careful consideration in relapse prevention programs.
Spontaneous recovery
focuses on the behavior of the organism and the reinforcement that occurs. We learn best when our actions are reinforced.
Operant Conditioning - (B.F. Skinner)
a stimulus or event applied after a response.
Reinforcer
application of a pleasant stimulus; they the strengthen or increase the frequency of behaviors.
Positive reinforcement
a pleasant stimulus is applied following an organism’s response
Reward conditioning
removal of an aversive or unpleasant stimulus; weaken the behaviour by not reinforcing it.
Negative reinforcement
an aversive stimulus is applied, the organism makes a response that causes the unpleasant stimulus to cease.
Escape conditioning
an aversive stimulus is anticipated by the organism, which makes a response that causes the unpleasant S to cease.
Avoidance conditioning
To increase the probability of a response
A. Positive reinforcement
- Reward conditioning
B. Negative reinforcement
- Escape conditioning
- Avoidance conditioning
To decrease the probability of a response
Nonreinforcement
Punishment
an organism’s conditioned response is not followed by any kind of reinforcement (positive, negative, or organism cannot escape or avoid punishment)
Nonreinforcement
following a response, an aversive stimulus is applied that the organism cannot escape or avoid
Punishment
saying phrases like, “good”, “well-done” when students respond. gives recognition to the student
Verbal ways
- nodding
- smiling
- looking pleased
- giving the “thumb’s-up” sign
Non-Verbal ways
Ways of Employing Positive Reinforcement (3)
- Verbal ways
- Non-Verbal ways
- Citing in class or publishing on the bulletin board exceptional works or outputs.
Classification of Educational Reinforcers (7)
- Recognition
- Tangible rewards
- Learning Activities
- School responsibilities
- Status Indicators
- Incentive feedback
- Personal activities
- Praise, certification of accomplishments
- Formal acknowledgments -awards, testimonials, letters of recommendation
- Informal acknowledgments- private conversations, pat on the back
Recognition
grades, food (free lunch), prizes
Tangible rewards
opportunity for desirable enrichment assignment (membership in “honors” class; more difficult clinical assignment
Learning Activities
- Opportunities for increased self-management & more participation in decision-making.
- Acceptance of suggestions for improving the curriculum
- Greater opportunity for selecting own goals for learning experiences
- Greater opportunity to control own schedule and set own priorities.
School responsibilities
appointment as a peer tutor or having own space (study corner, desk)
Status Indicators
increased knowledge of examination scores or knowledge of individual contributions (helping others)
Incentive feedback
opportunity to engage in special projects and extra time off.
Personal activities
is tantamount or synonymous to punishment, that leads to a reduction in the frequency of the behaviour
Negative Reinforcement
the key to learning and changing is the individual’s cognition (perception, thinking, memory and ways of processing and structuring information).
Cognitive Learning Theory
the learner’s understanding of her way to learning. It also refers to the processes used to plan, monitor and assess one understanding and performance
Metacognition
3 components of the memory system
- sensory register
- short-term memory
- long-term memory
Cognitive learning theory conceptual and theoretical perspectives (5)
Gestalt
Information processing
Cognitive development
Social constructivism
Social cognition.
emphasizes the importance of perception in learning. It reflects the maxim, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Each person perceives and responds to any situation in his or her own way.
Gestalt perspective
emphasizes thinking processes: thought, reasoning, the way information is encountered and stored and memory functioning.
Information processing
9 events that activate effective learning.
- reception
- expectancy
- retrieval
- selective perception
- semantic encoding
- responding
- reinforcement
- retrieval
- generalization
focuses on qualitative changes in perceiving, thinking and reasoning as individuals grow and mature.
Cognitive development
the best known of the cognitive developmental theorists. His observations of children’s perceptions and reasoning at different ages have contributed much to our recognition of the unique, changing abilities of youngsters to think, conceptualize, communicate, and perform
Jean Piaget
four sequential stages of cognitive development by piaget
- Sensorimotor
- Preoperational
- Concrete operations
- formal operations.
social factors
Social constructivism
influences; social interaction
Tenets
highlights the influence of social factors on perception, thought, and motivation which, when applied to learning, emphasize the need for instructors to consider the dynamics of the social environment and social groups on both interpersonal and intrapersonal behavior.
Social Cognition
focuses on the cause-and-effect relationships and explanations that individuals formulate to account for their own and others’ behavior and the way in which the world operates
Attribution Theory
Albert Bandura proposed on a perspective on learning that includes consideration of the personal characteristics of the learner , behavior patterns, and the environment.
Social Learning Theory
Albert Bandura’s Theory
Social Learning Theory
environmental conditions shape behaviour through learning and the person’s behaviour, in return shapes the environment
Reciprocal Determinism
Considerable learning occurs by taking note of other people’s behavior and what happens to them
role modeling
involves determining whether learners perceive role models as being rewarded or punished for their actions
vicarious reinforcement
3 interrelated determinants of how behaviour occurs
- Antecedents
- Consequence
- Cognitive factors
behavior is based on the past, as we have seen it
Antecedents
it is also influenced by its result
Consequence
how we are motivated
Cognitive factors
According to Knowles (1980), adults learns in ways that are different from children.
Adult Learning Theory
refer to the education of adults, in contrast to pedagogy, term used for the education of children.

Knowles (1980)
assumes that every individual is unique and that all individuals have a desire to grow in a positive way.
Humanistic Learning Theory
is derived from each person’s needs, subjective feelings about the self, and the desire to grow.
Motivation
based on the hierarchy of needs explains why a hungry patient will not pay attention to health teachings until his/her physiologic need of hunger is first met before meeting his/her need for information or instruction.
Maslow’s theory of motivation
a theory of motivation that stresses emotions rather than cognition or responses.
