Pender's health promotion model from 1982 explains factors that influence healthy behaviors. The model identifies individual characteristics, cognitions regarding behaviors, and interpersonal/situational influences as impacting behavioral outcomes. It draws from expectancy value theory and social cognitive theory. Research has applied the model to areas like cancer screening, HIV care, smoking cessation, and health behaviors in homeless women. The model provides a framework for nurses to assess factors impacting patients' health behaviors and design interventions accordingly.
Psychotherapy in Youth with Chronic IllnessJill Plevinsky
This document discusses psychotherapy for youth with chronic illnesses. It begins with an overview of pediatric psychology and the psychosocial effects of chronic illness in youth. It then reviews treatment research on psychotherapy for children and adolescents with chronic conditions like asthma, cancer, cystic fibrosis, and juvenile diabetes. Two studies are discussed in depth: one on cognitive behavioral therapy to reduce needle anxiety in youth with cystic fibrosis, and another on CBT for adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease and subsyndromal depression. The document concludes by calling for more culturally-competent evidence-based treatments and future research directions in pediatric psychology.

Incorporating Psychology into Dietetics Practice in the Head & Neck Cancer Po...Claudia Gonzalez MS, RD
This document discusses two studies that explored incorporating psychological strategies into dietetics practice for head and neck cancer patients. The first study, called Heads Up, found no significant differences in nutrition, depression, or mortality when using psychologists compared to usual care. The second study, called Eating As Treatment (EAT), found promising results when trained dietitians provided cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing, including improvements in nutritional status, weight, depression, and treatment interruptions. The document reflects on how training dietitians in screening for depression and using techniques like CBT and MI could help improve nutrition-related outcomes for head and neck cancer patients.

The good life --assessing the relative importance of physical, psychological,...Younis I Munshi
The study examined the interrelationships between physical dysfunction, self-efficacy, psychological distress, exercise, and quality of well-being in osteoarthritis patients. It found that exercise was directly related to physical functioning but not related to self-efficacy, psychological distress, or quality of well-being. Self-efficacy and psychological distress were significantly related to quality of well-being, suggesting that treatments focusing on these may be most effective for improving well-being in osteoarthritis patients.
The document discusses several models of health behavior:
1) The Basic Risk Perception Model focuses on likelihood and severity of harm from not acting. Higher risk perception predicts greater motivation to act.
2) The Health Belief Model includes perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers in predicting preventive health behaviors. Perceived barriers are the strongest predictor.
3) Protection Motivation Theory assesses threat and coping appraisal processes. Response costs have the strongest impact on health behaviors and attitudes.
4) The Transtheoretical Model proposes stages of change and processes of change to explain behavior progression. Decisional balance and self-efficacy also predict stage of change.
This document discusses a study that examined how an exercise intervention aimed at increasing physical activity affected self-efficacy and anxiety levels in college students. The study involved 18 students who completed self-report measures of self-efficacy and anxiety before and after engaging in a 7-week exercise program of walking 3 times per week for 20 minutes. The results showed no significant changes in self-efficacy or anxiety levels as the exercise intervention progressed. While previous research has found links between exercise, increased self-efficacy, and decreased anxiety, this particular study was unable to establish relationships between the variables through the exercise intervention tested.
This study developed the Proactive Coping for Eating Behavior Inventory (PCEBI) to measure proactive coping attitudes toward eating behavior. 280 students completed questionnaires measuring demographics, proactive coping using the PCEBI items developed by the researchers, and eating behaviors. Exploratory factor analysis identified a 5-factor structure for the PCEBI. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the 5-factor model. The PCEBI subscales showed good reliability and were correlated with eating behavior measures, supporting the PCEBI's validity. The study developed a valid and reliable measure of proactive coping for eating behavior.
Elderly compliance to physical therapy programs is an important issue, as noncompliance can lead to negative health outcomes. Studies have found that one-third to two-thirds of patients are not fully compliant with prescribed exercises. The Health Belief Model and Self-Determination Theory can help explain factors influencing compliance. Key factors include a patient's perceived susceptibility, severity of their condition, barriers/benefits to treatment, and level of intrinsic motivation. Improving patient education and autonomy support can increase long-term compliance to physical therapy programs.

This study tested a novel training program to recalibrate perceptions of body size in women with high body concerns and in women with atypical anorexia nervosa (aAN). In Study 1, women with high body concerns were randomly assigned to intervention or control groups. The intervention group underwent four daily training sessions where they judged body sizes and received feedback to improve accuracy. This significantly improved their body size judgements and reduced body and eating concerns compared to controls. In Study 2, the training also recalibrated judgements in women with aAN and reduced their body size and eating concerns. The training shows potential as a valuable addition to traditional therapies for treating body image disturbances.
1) The study examined whether intolerance of uncertainty mediates the relationship between distress tolerance and binge eating using two samples.
2) Results from both samples found that low distress tolerance predicted high intolerance of uncertainty, which then predicted increased binge eating and overall eating disorder symptoms.
3) This suggests intolerance of uncertainty fully mediated the effect of distress tolerance on binge eating/eating disorder symptoms, supporting the hypothesis.

Exposure to traumatic experiences or material can often have a negative impact on a person's health. It can be common for us to only consider people who have experienced trauma first hand as experiencing negative health effects, both physically and mentally. However, this experience can also occur when a person experiences traumatic material secondarily.
Secondary traumatic stress can develop when a person is exposed to trauma through hearing about the first-hand trauma experiences of others. This has become common in jobs where employees are exposed to clients/patients who have suffered from trauma (e.g. domestic violence specialists, mental health professionals, or nurses).
Its symptoms can mimic those of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) if left unchecked. Furthermore, this can often be reflected in their health status (e.g. negatively impacted).
Research has suggested that individuals who have been exposed to trauma were 2.7 times more likely to have a longstanding negative health problem, such as fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and chronic fatigue syndrome. For this reason, it is important to examine the potential psychological and organisational factors that can influence, or protect against, the development of health problems and secondary traumatic stress in employees who experience high volumes of traumatic material.
The Health Belief Model is a psychological model developed in the 1950s by U.S. Public Health researchers to understand health behaviors. It focuses on an individual's perceptions of susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers related to a health condition and cues that trigger actions. The model helps develop health messages to persuade people to make healthy decisions and has been applied to behaviors like smoking, exercise, and seatbelt use.
A strengths-based approach to personal health assessment is proposed as an alternative to traditional health risk appraisals (HRAs). Strengths-based assessments would measure positive health behaviors and an individual's lifestyle strengths rather than focusing solely on risks. This approach may increase the appeal of assessments for employees and provide a better starting point for health promotion programs. Future research is needed to determine if strengths-based assessments can effectively predict health outcomes and evaluate wellness programs, as well as influence workplace health culture.

This document summarizes research on factors that predict and promote resilience in physically ill individuals. It finds that psychological factors like self-esteem, optimism, and mastery are associated with resilience. Effective coping strategies include spirituality, positive appraisal, and benefit finding. Social support from family and friends also predicts resilience. The document reviews studies on specific illnesses and interventions to increase resilience. It concludes that understanding resilience could help improve care and outcomes for physically ill patients.
1. The document discusses the use of yoga as an alternative or complementary treatment to standardized pharmaceutical therapies for mental illnesses like depression and anxiety.
2. Several research studies presented in the document found that yoga led to reductions in heart rate, blood pressure, and stress hormones as well as improvements in immune functioning and psychological well-being.
3. The document argues that yoga engages the body's natural healing system and treats the underlying causes of illness rather than just suppressing symptoms like many pharmaceutical therapies.
This proposal suggests studying the potential benefits of yoga in treating eating disorders by evaluating its effects on stress levels. It hypothesizes that since stress is commonly co-occurring with eating disorders, reducing stress through yoga may also benefit eating disorder patients. The study would recruit local yoga studio participants and use a pre-/post-test design to analyze if yoga decreases stress scores. If successful, it provides preliminary evidence that yoga may help address the disconnect between mind and body experienced by many with eating disorders.
This document summarizes research on factors that influence health literacy and outcomes. It reviews 15 studies exploring how personal characteristics, health systems, patient-provider communication, and disease self-management affect health literacy and outcomes. The studies included meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, and retrospective cohorts evaluating interventions like health literacy education and discharge planning on outcomes such as healthcare utilization, costs, health status, and patient satisfaction. Overall, the review examines how addressing health literacy through various interventions can improve individual and population health.
1) The document discusses exploring the role of narrative therapy in treating obesity and body image disturbances. It notes that traditional diet and exercise therapies are often ineffective long-term for maintaining weight loss due to factors like body dissatisfaction.
2) Narrative therapy aims to help individuals construct alternative stories and narratives about themselves and their bodies that are not defined by problems like obesity. By exploring life narratives, it may help improve body image and decrease body mass index more effectively than traditional therapies alone.
3) McKian's master's thesis examined whether adding narrative therapy targeting obesity narratives to a diet program would improve body image and decrease BMI more in obese and overweight women compared to diet therapy alone. The literature review discussed research supporting

This chapter discusses definitions of health and health promotion. It defines episodic health as seeking treatment during illness, while preventive medicine focuses on lowering risk factors. Individual health promotion focuses on risk reduction, while community health promotion emphasizes group empowerment. The goals of Healthy People 2010 are to increase quality and length of life and eliminate health disparities. Behavior change is difficult due to various influencing factors, but the stages of change model outlines six stages to accomplish changes. Today's college students represent traditional, non-traditional, minority and disabled populations with developmental tasks including career and parenting skills. Health has physical, emotional, spiritual, social, intellectual and holistic dimensions. Wellness uses assessments to develop boundaries beyond mortality and morbidity to unlock
This chapter discusses definitions of health and health promotion. It defines episodic health as seeking treatment during illness, while preventive medicine focuses on lowering risk factors. Individual health promotion focuses on risk reduction, while community health promotion emphasizes group empowerment. The goals of Healthy People 2010 are to increase quality life and eliminate health disparities. Behavior change is difficult due to various influencing factors, but can be achieved through the stages of change model involving pre-contemplation to termination. Today's college students are traditionally young adults but also include non-traditional older students and growing minority populations. A new definition of health focuses on the role of health as a process and the intrinsic and extrinsic resources that compose health.
This study examined the relationships between happiness and various goal attributes. The researchers asked 227 undergraduate students about their current life goals, rating each for difficulty, commitment, and stress. Students also reported their level of happiness. Results showed that having academic/occupational goals correlated with greater happiness, while health-related goals correlated with less happiness. Happier students reported being more committed to their goals and experiencing less stress and difficulty with goals. However, the study was limited by using a college student sample and not distinguishing perceived from actual goal characteristics.

Ok. This school makes me confused. The summary of this week they posted like this:
SUMMARY:
This week introduced you to grand theories and middle-range theories that serve to articulate the voice of nursing within healthcare.
Here are the key points covered:
Grand theories are comparatively more abstract than middle-range theories since they are at a higher level of abstraction. Compared to grand theories, middle-range theories are made up of limited number of concepts that lend themselves to empirical testing. All theories help to explain human health behavior.
· Sister Callista Royï's adaptive model theory is built on the conceptual foundation of adaptation. It identifies the positive role that nursing plays in the promotion and enhancement of client adaptation to environments that facilitate the healing process.
· Leiningerï's culture care theory is pertinent in the current multicultural healthcare environment where nurses are exposed to diverse cultures.
· Penderï's health promotion and disease prevention theory can be called as a "direction setting exercise" for nursing professionals. It believes in fostering the spirit of health promotion and disease and risk reduction.
From the chapter, Models and Theories Focused on Nursing Goals and Functions, read the following:The Health Promotion Model: Nola J. Pender
From the chapter, Models and Theories Focused on a Systems Approach, read the following:
The Roy Adaptation Model
From the chapter, Models and Theories Focused on Culture, read the following:
Leininger's Cultural Care Diversity and Universality Theory and Model
SO, THAT IS WHY I ASSUMED THAT HAS TO BE ONE OF THEM (Pender, Roy Adaptaion or Leininger)
ANYWAY, I AM PUTTING INFORMATION TOGETHER.

Models and Theories Focused on Nursing Goals and Functions
The Health Promotion Model: Nola J. Pender
Background
Nola J. Pender was born in 1941 in Lansing, Michigan. She graduated in 1962 with a diploma in nursing. In 1964, Pender completed a bachelor’s of science in nursing at Michigan State University. By 1969, she had completed a doctor of philosophy in psychology and education. During this time in her career, Pender began looking at health and nursing in a broad way, including defining the goal of nursing care as optimal health.
In 1975, Pender published a model for preventive health behavior; her health promotion model first appeared in the first edition of the text Health Promotion in Nursing Practice in 1982. Pender’s health promotion model has its foundation in Albert Bandura’s (1977) social learning theory (which postulates that cognitive processes affect behavior change) and is influenced by Fishbein’s (1967) theory of reasoned action (which asserts that personal attitudes and social norms affect behavior).
Pender’s Health Promotion Model
McCullagh (2009) labeled Pender’s health promotion model as a middle-range integrative theory, and rightly so. Fawcett (2005) decisively presented the differenc.
The document discusses strategies for developing responsible gambling initiatives through health messaging and communication. It outlines key target groups, objectives to consider when developing messages, and channels for disseminating those messages both inside and outside gambling venues. It then provides guidance on framing messages, including using narratives and images, tailoring content to individuals, addressing cultural factors, and focusing on concepts like perceived risk, health involvement, and literacy levels. Testing initiatives is emphasized before and after implementation.
Abstract
Healthy lifestyle can be defined as controlling all behaviours affecting the health of the individual, managing daily activities to improve health and reducing disease risks. Lifestyle behaviours affect disease risk and life quality. The development of healthy lifestyle behaviours, especially nutrition and Physical Activity is associated with type 2 diabetes, cardio-metabolic diseases and cancer risks. World Health Organization defines life quality as “individual’s perception of their position in life in the context of the culture and value systems in which they live and in relation to their goals, expectations, standards and concerns”. Therefore, healthy lifestyle behaviours, especially nutrition and physical activity are related to life quality. Measuring the risk of chronic disease associated with diet quality, healthy lifestyle and life quality is very important in terms of improving public health [1-3].

1) The document discusses physician well-being and maintaining personal wellness as a physician. It examines well-being across four domains: bio-physical, psycho-emotional, socio-relational, and religio-spiritual.
2) Research with over 1,000 physicians found measures of well-being across the four domains to be reliable and valid. Lower well-being in these areas is associated with higher risk of burnout.
3) Maintaining well-being provides protective factors to help physicians handle stressors in their personal and professional lives more effectively. Prioritizing well-being across all domains can help prevent poor outcomes like burnout.

This randomized clinical trial compared the effectiveness of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and usual care for treating chronic low back pain. 342 adults with chronic low back pain were randomly assigned to receive MBSR, CBT, or usual care. At 26 weeks, participants receiving MBSR or CBT reported significantly greater improvement in back pain and functional limitations compared to usual care. There were no significant differences in outcomes between MBSR and CBT. These findings suggest that MBSR may be an effective treatment option for chronic low back pain.

The main objective of this study was to examine health status, perceived stress, social support, self-esteem and psychological well-being as mediator variables for the relationship between spirituality and happiness. Quantitative descriptive research design using multiple regression and correlation techniques was used. Participants were 274 individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI) recruited from the Alberta, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Saskatchewan chapters of the Canadian Paraplegic Association. All of the five mediators were significantly associated with happiness. The five-mediator model accounted for 68% of the variance in happiness. The findings confirm spirituality is associated with happiness indirectly through its association with perceived stress, health status, social support, self-esteem, and psychological well-being, each of which is uniquely associated with happiness. Rehabilitation counselors should consider integrating spiritual interventions with health promotion interventions in vocational rehabilitation services for individuals with SCI to improve outcomes in life satisfaction.

This document discusses psychological approaches to health and their impacts on health promotion. It defines psychological aspects of health and lists common approaches like the biopsychosocial model. The key points made are that psychology influences health through emotional, behavioral and mental characteristics. Behavior is a major factor influencing physical health. While psychological approaches can help health promotion through education and behavior change advice, there are also some setbacks like certain views that illness is imaginary or issues with multicultural acceptance in medical settings.
Sex differences in the relationships between body dissatisfaction, quality of...Scoti Riff
1) The study examined sex differences in the relationships between body dissatisfaction, quality of life, and psychological distress in a sample of Australian adults.
2) The results showed that body dissatisfaction was associated with poorer mental health-related quality of life and greater psychological distress, and these relationships were stronger for men than women.
3) There was no significant interaction between sex and body dissatisfaction for physical health-related quality of life.
This document discusses behaviour and lifestyle change from the perspective of a health psychologist. It defines lifestyle and health behaviours, and outlines theoretical frameworks and behaviour change techniques that can be used to encourage behaviour change and promote health. Pregnancy is identified as a time when women may be more motivated to change behaviours, presenting an opportunity for interventions aimed at long-term public health benefits for women and their families.
