My four tendencies Upholder: "I do what others expect of me—and what I
expect from myself."
Questioner: "I do what I think is best, according to my
judgment. If it doesn't make sense, I won't do it."
Obliger: "I do what I have to do. I don't want to let
others down, but I may let myself down."
Rebel: "I do what I want, in my own way. If you try to
make me do something—even if I try to make myself
do something—I'm less likely to do it."
, Health Belief Model A theory of health behaviors; the model predicts that
whether a person practices a particular health habit
can be understood by knowing the degree to which
the person perceives a personal health threat and the
perception that a particular health practice will be
effective in reducing that threat.
Perceived susceptibility is the individual's perception of how likely they are to
acquire the negative health condition.
An example of someone who perceives low
susceptibility would be a woman who says, "I don't
really have to worry
about getting heart disease. I'm only 38, and heart
disease happens mostly to older men."
Perceived severity s the individual's belief about how negatively affected
they would be by the negative health
condition. An example of this would be a young gay
man who says, "I'm not worried about getting AIDS.
They have
medicine to treat it now and hardly anyone dies of it."
Perceived benefits is the individual's belief that a recommended action
will successfully prevent a negative health
condition. An example would be the man who says, "I
know that exercising regularly will help me lose
weight."
Perceived barriers is the person's opinion of what the recommended
action is going to cost, either in money, time, or
psychologically. An example of this would be the
woman who says, "I know I should get a mammogram,
but I'm afraid it
will hurt. Also, I don't have insurance to pay for the
test."
