The document discusses the health locus of control model, which is based on Rotter's social learning theory. It proposes that health behaviors are predicted by whether an individual believes they can perform a behavior and whether it will be effective (internal locus of control), or believes their health is controlled by external forces like chance (external locus of control). The Multiple Health Locus of Control scale is used to measure beliefs about different health situations. Generally, internal locus of control is linked to better health outcomes, though some research found that an external locus of control increased patients' perceived control during medical consultations by viewing the doctor as a partner.

Attributions are inferences that people make about the causes of events and behavior. People make attributions in order to understand their experiences. Attributions strongly influence the way people interact with others.
This is a presentation regarding Albert Ellis' REBT. Ellis' model teaches us to dispute irrational beliefs and replace them with rational ones to experience effective change.
The biomedical model of health has been dominant around the globe since several decades. The main content of shared document is to explain its actual meaning, its core principles and its claims about health and illness. At the end, some of the critical suggestions have been highlighted for the readers to create an awareness among the health professionals for adopting the other more appropriate models of health in order to exceed the longevity with health promotion.
The historical development of Abnormal Psychology or Psychopathology is worth studying. The progressive as well as conservative steps have contributed to a balanced view of abnormal behavior.

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

1. Health Locus of
Control Model

2. Locus of
Control
• A locus of control orientation is
a belief about whether the
outcomes of our actions are
contingent on what we do
(internal control orientation) or
on events outside our
personal control (external
control orientation)
3. Historical
Background
• In 1954, psychologist Julian Rotter
suggested that our behavior was
controlled by rewards
and punishmens and that it was these
consequences for our actions that
determined our beliefs about the
underlying causes of these actions.
• In 1966, Rotter published a scale
designed to measure and assess
external and internal locus of control.
The scale utilizes a forced-choice
between two alternatives, requiring
respondents to choose just one of two
possibilities for each item.
4. Internal and External Locus
of Control
• Internal Locus of Control: A belief that reinforcement is
brought about by one’s own behavior.
• External Locus of control: belief that reinforcement is
under the control of other people, fate or Luck.
• It is important to note that locus of control is a
continuum. No one has a 100 percent external or
internal locus of control. Instead, most people lie
somewhere on the continuum between the two
extremes.
5. Internal vs External Locus of Control
Internal Locus of Control
• Are more likely to take responsibility for their actions
• Tend to be less influenced by the opinions of other people
• Often do better at tasks when they are allowed to work at
their own pace
• Usually, have a strong sense of self-efficacy
• Tend to work hard to achieve the things they want
• Feel confident in the face of challenges
• Tend to be physically healthier
• Report being happier and more independent
• Often achieve greater success in the workplace
External Locus of Control
• Blame outside forces for their circumstances
• Often credit luck or chance for any successes
• Don't believe that they can change their situation
through their own efforts
• Frequently feel hopeless or powerless in the face of
difficult situations
• Are more prone to experiencing learned
helplessness.
7. HEALTH LOCUS OF CONTROL MODEL
• The Health Locus of Control model is based on Rotter’s Social
learning theory. It proposes that health behaviours are predicted by
the extent to which an individual believes they can perform the
behaviour and that it will be effective.
• Individuals with an internal locus of control (LOC) are more likely to
take action to manage their symptoms than an individual with more
external LOC who believes their symptoms are a result of chance and
looks to other sources, such as the doctor, to manage their symptoms.
8. Health Locus of Control
Model
• The most widely used measure is the Multiple Health Locus
of Control (MHLC) Scale, evaluating beliefs about health
behaviours in general, and the variance in results might
relate to individuals holding different beliefs depending on
the situation.
• For example, an individual might have a high internal LOC
for weight loss (i.e. they believe they are responsible and
have the ability to reduce their weight) but a high external
LOC for managing their arthritis, believing this is the
doctor’s responsibility.
9. Health Locus of
Control
• Among adults, external locus of control is
associated with negative health outcomes,
whereas internal locus of control is associated
with favorable outcomes.
• On contary, Ryan et al (2003) found that within
a medical consultation, contrary to the HLC
model, an external LOC increased the patient’s
perceived control over their ability to live with
their arthritis. This may be because patients
view their condition as too unpredictable and
mutifacted to manage without external
professional support and view the consultation
as a partnership where their issues could be
voiced and management appropriate to their
needs provided.
