Individual Health Behavior Change Program Plan – 25%
Topic: effect of time management on stress level when you have more time to do more exercises, rather than working all the time and not having free time for personal health.
Purpose:
As a primary component of this course you will complete an Individual Health Behaviour Change Program Plan. The purpose of the health behaviour change plan is to practice implementing behaviour changes skills and strategies, where you are the participant in the study.
Learning Objectives:
1. Evaluate scientific literature and theories relevant to your target behaviour/problem and integrate evidence in your health behaviour change program.
2. Use motivational interviewing, various assessment instruments, counselling techniques and intervention strategies appropriate for change.
3. Design your individual behaviour change program as culturally-sensitive and inclusive so anyone could follow this program for change.
Procedures:
Ace my homework – Write a report including all of the following steps:
Individual Health Behaviour Change Program
Task 1: What is the problem behaviour to be addressed
• Identify target behaviour or problem to be addressed
• Describe the target behaviour
• Define the target behaviour(s) and target groups
• Measure the behaviour
• Identify a baseline for the behaviour
• Deciding to change behaviour
• Analyse the problem in behavioural terms (needs assessment)
• Develop a preliminary logic model or program theory
• Consider systems of behaviour and specifically the ecological system that the problem and behaviours are a part of
Task 2: What are the hypothesized mechanisms of effect on behaviour and intervention components
• Understand the target behaviour(s) informed by theory and evidence
• Select key modifiable determinants for influencing factors to be targeted
• Define and develop intervention content and delivery modes
• Evaluate the program and its’ effectiveness and reach conclusions
• Provide any modifications to your program
There will be a number of assignments during the semester leading up to the submission of the program plan itself. Each assignment/worksheet throughout the term will be necessary to complete the final program and will aid in your program progressions.

Identify Identifies a clearly defined and measurable problem/target behaviour Identifies a goal but some components are not clearly defined or measurable Goal is not appropriate for a behaviour change program. Goal would not result in behaviour change No clear goal is stated
Examine Clearly states and analyzes a behaviour he/she wishes to change, & behaviour is within control States a behaviour but doesn’t clearly define how to be in control and how the behaviour will be measured States behaviour he/she wishes to change; but either the behaviour is not in the student’s control or it is not measurable No clear behavior is stated that will help student meet his/her goal
Formulate Formulates a plan which incorporates theory, appropriate terminology and strategies Plan includes some but not all aspects of the appropriate strategy or terminology Plan incorrectly uses some aspects of the appropriate behaviour change terminology Plan incorrectly uses the behaviour change strategy and terminology
Gather Appropriately researches, gathers and explains baseline data he/she wishes to change Appropriately gathers baseline data but does not explain Gathers some baseline data without clear explanation, or clearly explains baseline without data Get custom essay samples and course-specific study resources via course hero homework for you service – Include s no baseline or explanation
Evaluate Evaluates effectiveness of the program plan and provides evidence of change and forms conclusions Evaluates effectiveness of plan but does not form conclusions Evaluates the effectiveness of some of the plan but does not clearly explain how it was effective No evaluation of conclusions are drawn on the program and it’s effectiveness
Modify Provides modifications and recommendations to improve program Provides modifications but no recommendations to improve plan Provides some modifications but it is not clear how this will improve the plan No modifications or recommendations are provided
