Feb 13th, 2014 by BK
Jim Frankish and co-authors Chris Lovato and Iraj Poureslami have updated their chapter on “Models, Theories, and Principles of Health Promotion and Their Use with Multicultural Populations” in the recent January 2014 release of the third edition of the book titled Health Promotion in Multicultural Populations: A Handbook for Practitioners and Students.
The chapter presents five prevalent models for health education (e.g. social learning theory, etc.), several ecological models (e.g., Precede-Proceed, etc.), and discusses setting standards for multicultural health promotion. On completing the chapter, health promotion students and practitioners will be able to identify and define the levels of change sought by programs at the health promotion and health education levels.
