Students will be able to: Identify multilevel determinants influencing a chosen health behavior among a target population Provide the rationale for selected theories used to guide intervention development Align theoretical constructs and methods to intervention activities Discuss strengths and weaknesses of the theories as applied to the proposed intervention The Health Communication Report will be written like a congressional health expert testimony report, to be delivered at a hypothetical U.S. House committee hearing. Below are the sections of your report. Statement of the problem. Choose a health issue (public health problem) for a selected priority population. Explain why it is a concern for a selected group of people. Determine scope of the health behavior you are interested in addressing in your intervention. Consider the level of prevention (primary, secondary, tertiary) and type of behavior (preventive, illness, sick-role). Conduct a literature review to identify determinants across the ecological model that influence the health behavior among your priority population. Determine which determinant(s) you would like to address in your intervention. What are the impacts of this particular health issues? What factors contribute to the Select appropriate theory(ies) that can help address the identified determinants of your health behavior. Develop objective(s) of your intervention. Think S-M-A-R-T! (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time-bound). Develop specific intervention strategies and activities that are guided by your theory(ies). In other words, how are you going to translate the theoretical constructs into your intervention? Design a data visualization (infographic) that clearly communicates your theory-based health intervention to the general public. Include the following components in the report: Background (brief description of the health problem and its public health significance, priority population, health behavior of focus, and its multilevel determinants) This will include appropriate statistics. Theoretical Framework (brief overview of the selected theory(ies); justification of appropriateness of theory(ies) to address health issue) Intervention/Recommendations Objective(s) of intervention Brief overview of intervention (what it is, who will be administering the intervention, setting where the intervention will take place, how intervention works) Description of intervention strategies and activities (consider using a table to relate your intervention components back to your theoretical constructs clearly) Conclusion – a discussion (brief summary of intervention; strengths and weaknesses of the theories as applied to the proposed intervention; the potential impact of your intervention on improving health problems among your priority population References – APA format will be used in preparing your report and will include at least six peer-review health communication journal articles and books in text and in References. Word count: 2000 words Data Visualization Info-Graphic – This is depicted on a separate page of your report. You will develop a data visualization artifact as part of your Health Communications Report, designed for the general public as an example which could be an infographic or other form of data interpretation and presentation through graphical means. Selected students will present about 3-5 minutes on the data visualization and answer questions and comments from fellow students. There are no points for presentations and participation is voluntary. Report writing is 15% of your grade. Infographic comprises 10 %. This assignment in total will be 25% of your grade. Assessment write a 2000 words essay based on a topic Industrial Factories and Air Pollution in California following the Rubric and use these reference in APA format.
