Background

Kurt Lewin

Importance
One of the first models developed exclusively for health-related behaviors. Currently among the most popular models Has been revised to apply to a greater number of people (Expanded)
+
+
Perceived Susceptibility
Definition: Subjective belief that a person may acquire a disease or enter a harmful state as a result of a particular disease.
+
Perceived Severity
Definition: belief in the extent of harm that can result from the acquired disease or harmful state of a particular behavior.
MILD SEVERE (death)
+
Perceived Benefits
Definition: Belief in the advantages of the methods suggested for reducing the risk or seriousness of the disease of harmful state from a particular behavior.
+
Perceived Barriers
Concern that the new behavior will take too much time.
Their belief could be actual or imagined.
+
Cues to action
To cause a force that would make a person feel the need to take action.
+
Self-efficacy
Confidence in a persons ability to purse a behavior
+
Primary Prevention example for HBM Should I get the H1N1 vaccination?
+
Constructs & applications
Perceived susceptibility
Perceived severity
Perceived benefits
How likely is it I will get swine flu?
How bad would it be if I did?
What do I gain by getting the shot?
+
Constructs & applications
Perceived Barriers Cues to Action Self Efficacy Is it available what’s the cost?
Posters, Emails, commercials I am confident I can be healthy
+
Research Example
A. Purpose Analyze health beliefs on practicing breast self examination (BSE) among Turkish mothers and their daughters, who were nursing students.
+
Research Example
B. Results Nursing student daughters practiced BSE more regularly than their mothers. The mothers scored higher in perceived susceptibility and barriers
+
Research Example
C. Conclusions Significant differences were found between participants. Education was seen as a factor.
+
Research Example
C. Conclusions continued… Daughters who had: lower perceptions of barriers, higher motivation, benefit perception,
self-efficacy
+
Research Example
D. Implications Perceive fewer barrier Believing in one’s ability Motivation to do it regularly
+
Research Example
D. Implications continued… Training by health care providers Successful BSE Lowering perceived barriers such as fear, frequency, and time constraints Reference Kara, B., & Acikel, C. (2009). Health beliefs and breast self-examination in a sample of Turkish nursing students and their mothers. Journal of Clinical Nursing, 18(10), 1412-1421.
+
Conclusion
Health Belief Model is a value-expectancy model First theory developed exclusively for health-related behaviors
+
Conclusion
Strengths
Can be used alone or in conjunction with other models Understanding what beliefs or attitudes motivate behaviors Good for the cessation and acquisition of behaviors Enhances self-control
+
Conclusion
Weaknesses
Not great for long term behavior change Lacks predictive power Difficult to be tested Self fulfilling prophecy
+
Conclusion
Consists of six constructs
Perceived susceptibility Perceived severity Perceived benefits Perceived barriers Cues to action Self-efficacy Together known as “Perceived Threat”
