The Social and Behavioral Sciences:

Core Concepts

• Anthropology

• Demography

• Psychology

• Behavioural sciences

• The Health Belief Model (HBM) is an

intrapersonal (within the individual, knowledge and

beliefs) theory used in health promotion to design

intervention and prevention programs.

The HBM assumes that behavior change occurs

with the existence of three ideas at the same time:

• An individual recognizes that there is enough reason to make a health

concern relevant (perceived susceptibility and severity)

• That person understands he or she may be vulnerable to a disease or

negative health outcome. (perceived threat)

• Lastly the individual must realize that behavior change can be

beneficial and the benefits of that change will outweigh any costs of

doing so. (perceived benefits and barriers)

Perceived Susceptibility

• Within the health field susceptibility refers to the risk a person has to a

particular disease or health outcome.

Perceived Severity

• Most people are familiar with the word severity as how serious a situation or

action can be.

Perceived Threat

• Susceptibility as stated before displayed how someone acknowledged that

their behavior could lead to a specific disease.

Perceived Benefit

• Benefit that are realized by the individual.

Environmental Factors

• Environmental factors can add to the threat of disease

Cues to Action

• Lastly cues to action are reasons why an individual realizes he could be

threatened by serious disease.

Health Promotion and Health public Policy

• One goal of a healthy public policy is health

promotion

• Each individual plays a role in achieving the

goals of healthy public policy

Concept of Health Promotion

• Enabling people to increase control over, and to

improve, their own health

Health Promotion

• The process of enabling people to increase control

over, and to improve, their health.

• To reach a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, an

individual or group must be able to identify and to realize aspirations, to

satisfy needs, and to change or cope with the environment.


Social policies

• The Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion (1985) – claims that health is influenced by a wide range of policy decisions. The Charter made it clear that health policy is not simply the responsibility of health departments.

• Invest in sustainable policies, actions and infrastructure to address the determinants of health;

• Build capacity for policy development, leadership, health promotion practice, knowledge transfer and research, and health literacy;

• Regulate and legislate to ensure a high level of protection from harm and enable equal opportunity for health and well being for all people;

• Build alliances with public, private, nongovernmental and international organizations and civil society to create sustainable actions.

Social policies

• The Shanghai Declaration in 2016

• “Promoting health in the Sustainable Development Goals: Health for all and all for health”

• The Shanghai Declaration recognizes health and well-being as essential to achieving sustainable development. It reaffirms health as a universal right, an essential resource for everyday living, a shared social goal, and a political priority for all countries.

Shanghai Declaration

• Good governance is crucial for health

• Cities and communities are critical settings for health

• Health literacy empowers and drives equity


• Enhancing health literacy, through improved access to information, enables

people to make more informed decisions about their health and the health

of their families, and empowers them to advocate more effectively to their

political leaders and policy-makers. It also promotes accountability by

deepening people’s understanding of the health impact of policies and

political decisions.


The road to Shanghai: from Ottawa

(1986) to Shanghai (2016)


The Four Key Commitments

benefits that impact different sectors of society:

• "Health is created and lived by people within the

settings of their everyday life; where they learn,
