Introduction to Health Behavior Theory by Joanna Hayden
Designed to provide students with an easy to understand, interesting, and engaging introduction to the theoretical basis of health education, Introduction to Health Behavior Theory, Fourth Edition uses comprehensive and accessible explanations to help students understand what theory is, how theories are developed, and what factors influence health behavior theory. Covering the more commonly used health behavior theories in individual chapters, the author breaks each theory into concepts and constructs to enhance comprehension and encourage students to discover how these theories can be put into practice. Key Features: - Theory essence sentence and constructs chart at the beginning of each chapter condenses the theory into one easy to learn and remember sentence and provides context for the rest of the chapter. - A historical overview of each theory's development provides students with a context for how and why the theory explains behavior. - Numerous examples from the literature in difference practice settings with different populations to support learning/understanding of the content. Many examples are COVID-19 related. - End of chapter activities based on a reproduced full journal article reinforce chapter content by clearly demonstrating the theory's application in practice. - Links to and annotations of additional open access articles in each chapter that demonstrate the application of the theory in practice. - A final summary chapter includes guidelines for choosing a theory, summary charts of theory essence sentences and constructs, and construct domains with examples of corresponding program activities. - Navigate eBook access (included with the print text) provides online or offline access to the digital text from a computer, tablet, or mobile device.Dr. Joanna Hayden began her more than 40-year career in health and education as a critical care nurse.
