UNIT 3 AOS 1 MARKING SCHEME

Question 1

Interrelationship of the dimensions of H&W
(Using a student that broke leg)

Answer 1

The interrelationship between the dimensions of h&w can be seen in the example of a student who breaks a leg. The student would not be able to function effectively, which would have a detrimental effect on their physical h&W. Not being able to do daily activities, such as getting from one class to another, may cause them to get upset over things they wouldn’t normally; for example, having to wait in a queue; perhaps causing pain and distress, which can impact emotional h&w. Knowing they are frustrated and upset about things that they would normally find easy may negatively impact their mental h&W, due to decreased confidence in dealing with school. This could mean not attending school, which could reduce the strength of their relationship with peers, thus negatively impacting social h&W. This lack of relationships at school may decrease the feeling of connectedness with school (Negatively impacting spiritual health). As a result, once they are ready to return to school (confidence on crutches) They may experience some anxiety about how people will treat them (negatively impacting mental h&w).

Question 2

Benefits

Answer 2

When it comes to answering questions, one of the best ways to approach health as a resource individually, nationally, and globally is through income and taxation as this can apply to all three. If we look at the way they can all affect each other:

• INDIVIDUALLY:
  Citizens can use the money for their own benefit (Gym membership, nutritious food, whatever makes the most sense to you) and a portion of all income will be taxed
• NATIONALLY:
  The more the money, the more tax the government can obtain to use on things like parks, roads and healthcare systems

GLOBALLY: If income is used on healthcare, people are less likely to develop communicable diseases which have the potential to spread from country to country, reducing the likelihood of disease outbreaks.
