What is health promotion? correct answers Is a field of study that examines how knowledge,
attitude, and beliefs of both individuals and the communities in which they reside contribute
to health behavior
Dimension of Health: Physical correct answers absence of disease and disability; functioning
adequately; physical condition of the body.
Dimension of Health: Emotional correct answers ability to feel and express full range of
human emotions; express/control appropriately
Dimension of Health: Social correct answers ability to interact/communicate effectively;
connect with others; demonstrate respect/tolerance; sense of belonging.
Dimension of Health: Mental/Intellectual correct answers ability to make sound decisions and
think critically; striving for continued personal growth/learn new info
Dimension of Health: Spiritual correct answers unifying force within individuals; meaning in
life; common bond between individuals; individual perceptions of faith
Dimension of Health: Environmental correct answers awareness of the environment's
importance to health, as well as human influence on environment
PER Factors: Predisposing correct answers before the behavior; includes knowledge,
attitudes, beliefs, etc.
PER Factors: Enabling correct answers before the behavior; availability, accessibility, and
affordability
PER Factors: Reinforcing correct answers after the behavior; social and personal benefits,
social support
Intervention Mapping Step 1: Logic Model of the Problem correct answers establish work
and planning group, conduct needs assessment, describe context of the intervention, state
program goals
Intervention Mapping Step 2: Program Outcomes and Objectives (Logic Model of Change)
correct answers state expected outcomes, specify performance objectives, select objectives
for behavior and environmental outcomes, select determinants for behavioral and
environmental outcomes, construct matrices of change, create logic model of change
Intervention Mapping Step 3: Program Design correct answers generate program themes,
components, scope and sequence; choose theory and evidence based change methods, select
or design practical applications to deliver change methods
Intervention Mapping Step 4: Program Production correct answers refine program structure
and organization; prepare program materials; pretest and refine materials
, Intervention Mapping Step 5: Program Implementation Plan correct answers identify users;
state outcomes and performance objectives for program use; construct matrices of change
objectives; design implementation interventions
Intervention Mapping Step 6: Evaluation Plan correct answers Evaluation occurs during the
entire process*; write effect and process evaluation questions; develop indicators and
measures for assessment; specify the evaluation design; complete the evaluation plan
Precede-Proceed Model correct answers Phase 1: social assessment; Phase 2: epidemiological
assessment; Phase 3: Educational/ Ecological Assessment; Phase 4: Intervention Design;
Phase 5: Implementation; Phase 6: Process Evaluation; Phase 7: Impact Evaluation; Phase 8:
Outcome Evaluation
Chronic Cardiovascular Adaptations to PA correct answers Decrease in sympathetic nervous
system and heart rate (resting and submax), increased stroke volume
Possible lower blood pressure
Peripheral:
Increased blood volume, capillary density, max muscle blood flow, mitochondrial count
Decreased sympathetic activity
Improved endothelial function in vessels
Decreased CVD risk and impact of disease
Chronic Nervous Adaptations to PA correct answers Long term potentiation: improving
synaptic abilities through repeated stimulation of neurons
More motor recruitment and inhibition of golgi tendon organs/antagonist groups
Better movement synch.
Enhanced brain plasticity through neurotrophins like BDNF
Chronic Digestive Adaptations to PA correct answers Altered neuroendocrine response and
altered gut taxa
Chronic Musculoskeletal changes correct answers Increased bone density and CSA of
skeletal muscle mass
Increased mitochondria count and fiber type specialization
Increased glycogen storage
Acute Cardiovascular Responses to PA correct answers Increase inHR, SV,and Q
Redistribution of blood to working tissues
Post exercise hypotension
Acute Nervous Responses to PA correct answers Increased glucose uptake into amygdala and
hippocampus
Acute Digestive Responses to PA correct answers Splanchnic circulation decreases
significantly with exercise and may be time and intensity dependent
Increased motility and mechanical bouncing
Acute Musculoskeletal Responses to PA correct answers Transient hypertrophy - creation of
metabolic wastes and inflammation
