Behavioral and Cultural Issues in Healthcare
In this week’s Discussion you will examine how the PRECEDE-PROCEDE, Intervention Mapping, and Mobilizing for Planning and Partnership (MAPP) models are used to develop intervention programs.
To prepare for this Discussion, your Instructor will assign you to one of three groups (based on your last name):
- Group A: The PRECEDE-PROCEED model
- Group B: The MAPP model
- Group C: The Intervention Mapping model
Check the Announcements area for your assignments.
Next, imagine that you are a health educator or other health professional that is planning a prevention program that relates to your assigned Healthy People focus area. Your goal is to develop a program that reduces the incidence of the disease and decreases the risk factors associated with the disease.
After reviewing this week’s readings, articles from the library, credible websites, etc., you will learn how other organizations have developed programs related to this particular Healthy People assigned focus area. Have they used a planning model in their program design? If so, which model?
Post a comprehensive response to the following questions:
(Note: Respond within the group with your assigned model in the title.)
- How could you apply the assigned model to develop a culturally-competent intervention program to reduce the incidence of a particular disease?
- Explain how some of the constructs (components) of the model would be considered in your program design.
- What are some of the strengths and weaknesses of the planning model you were assigned?
- Do you think the model you chose is the best model (from others mentioned in the readings or in the literature) to use for addressing this particular disease/health issue? Why or why not?
