Case Overview
We all have health behaviors that we would like change. Some like healthy behaviors such as eating better, having good quality sleep, meditating, and exercising we want to do more of, and some such as smoking, eating junk foods, or drinking too much, we want to do less of. Changing health behaviors is not always as easy or straightforward as it may appear, and that's where health behavior theory can play a valuable role in helping people make healthy changes.
For this project you will select a health behavior that you may have been thinking about changing or have tried to change previously without success. Through the three guided healthy change modules, you will be given an opportunity to reflect on the factors that may help or hinder actually making this healthy change by completing a series of measures and tools often used in health behavior change research. You will also learn the value and limitations of current health behavior change theories that may be applied to understanding successful change.
The purpose of this project is threefold:
1) to learn how to observe, reflect, and analyze the factors and motivations that may be important for changing a health behavior.
2) to increase your understanding of what it is like to be the target of a health behavior change program and to complete psychological measures often used in health behavior research.
3) to increase your understanding of how to apply health behavior change theories/interventions to changing a specific health behavior.
So, in summary, please submit the above files plus a journal entry that includes the following components as detailed above:
1. State the specific health behavior you wish to change and describe in well-defined terms.
2. Provide the baseline frequency rating of this behavior for a period of one week.
3. Your history with this healthy change (that is how long have you been considering it, have you tried making this change previously, etc.), and a reflection on why you would like to make this healthy change.
You should expect to submit no more than 1-2 pages for this reflective piece. You will be graded on thorough reflection and thoroughness of response and completion of all components required.
part 2
Making healthy changes often requires extensive changes in other areas of our lives to help ensure that we are successful in meeting our goals. In this second installment of your course project, your focus will be on the factors that may help or hinder you in making a healthy behavior change.
