This document discusses three major models used to develop intervention programs: the PRECEDE-PROCEED model, Intervention Mapping model, and Mobilizing for Planning and Partnership (MAPP) model. It examines how a theory has been applied to a health intervention to address a health disparity.

1. Translating Theories and Research into Practice
Introduction
You found that theories are conceptual frameworks that provide
an explanation of a prob
lem. They are most useful when they are applied. Models
provide the guidelines for implementing the theories.
You will examine how three major models are used to develop
intervention programs. The three models are the PRECEDE –

and Partnership (MAPP) models.
