Overview

The module will address the ways in which health-related behavioural changes can have a positive effect on an individual鈥檚 well-being through adopting a healthy lifestyle in conjunction with health promotion strategies such as diet and exercise. The module will provide an introduction to psychological theories and perspectives on health beliefs, behaviours and behaviour change. The will also explore global, UK and healthcare policies adopted by the Welsh Government, and will link to National Policy and Planning Mechanisms focussing on Community based prevention and early intervention, physical activity and health.

Assessment Strategy

There are two summative assessments for this module each contributing 50% of the final module grade. Students need to achieve an overall average of at least 40% in the module to pass. Workbook (<1000 words) focused on the effects of a selected health behavior on the body, applying published evidence to explain behaviour choices and discussing a chosen health promotion campaign. Online multiple choice exam based on the weekly lecture and reading list articles.
