Present one theory or model within the field of public
health which describes either how people maintain health and/or how illness is

these multiple theories and models be beneficial to public health
professionals? It is not appropriate to repeat one that has already been posted
unless you are providing new information. Review all peer submissions and
become familiar with the multiple theories and models. Respond to three peers’s
posts asking any questions or verifying your analysis of the theory/model.

Week 5 Discussion
DQ1
Present a basic case in which an individual would wish
to change a long-term health behavior? For example, a 39-year-old female wishes
to stop her two-pack-a-day smoking habit which she has had for 10 years. Using
various models and theories of behavioral change help create strategies for
modifying the patient’s behaviors. Explain the process/methods that could be
used to accomplish this goal. Predict how long this may take and what
challenges may present themselves? Review three peers’ postings and provide
constructive feedback on additional changes which could be beneficial as well
as additional insight.
DQ2
Why is health promotion/education such an important
component to behavioral change? Why do you think behavioral change is so
difficult for an individual?

Week 7 Discussion
DQ1
Find a program (provide a link to the program) which
was developed to provide health promotion and education to a specific
population. Evaluate this program on its ability to identify with the specific
population, on its implementation of effective intervention methods, and on its
program planning strategy. This evaluation will be very broad in scope and not
as in-depth as your research assignment. Review three peers’ postings, access
the program links, and compare your assessment to theirs? What additional
insights do you have?
DQ2
Find a media publication with a health message. Share
the link. What population is this publication targeting and how do you know? Do
you think it is effective or not? Why?

Week 8 Discussion
DQ1
In March 2010, President Barack Obama signed the
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law. Will this legislation help
decrease or eliminate health disparities? Can it be more effective? Use the
Kaiser Family Foundation’s “Focus on Health Reform: Summary of the New Health
Reform Law,” assigned as reading for this module, for a reference.
DQ2
Is it possible to eliminate health disparities in the
United States? Why or why not? What are some of the key strategies advocated by
the readings? Do you notice any similar themes in the assigned articles?
