In parallel, scientists, clinicians, and public health practitioners have focused on utilizing various theories and models in the planning and implementation of public health programs. However, as social, behavior, lifestyle, individual, and community risk factors have become more complex, so has designing evaluation criteria and selecting the most appropriate model for the interventions. The most common health behavior theories used to inform intervention designs and evaluations are Theory of Planned Behavior, the Transtheoretical Model, and the Health Belief Model (HBM). Respond Consider a disease or situation that is threatening your community such as heart disease, obesity, or HIV/AIDS and discuss how the community is at risk, the estimated number of people and any interventions of which you are aware. 1.Discuss the roles behavior, belief theories, and principles. How do they function in designing and planning an effective public health program and health policy development? 2.How do the roles of ethical and faith-based decision-making frameworks impact traditional health behavior theory? Discuss Respond to the initial prompt with a substantive post by the first deadline. REQUIRED TEXT Essentials of Planning and Evaluation for Public Health oMauffette-Leenders, L. A., Erskine, J.
