Assessment – Behavior Change Intervention Paper
The Behavior Change Intervention Paper is worth 330 points and will be graded on quality of information, use of citations, use of Standard English grammar, sentence structure, and overall organization based on the required components as summarized in the directions and grading criteria/rubric. Create your essay using Microsoft Word (a part of Microsoft Office), which is the required format for all Chamberlain documents. You can tell that the document is saved as a MS Word document because it will end in ″.docx″ Follow the directions and grading criteria closely. Any questions about your assignment may be posted under the Q & A Forum. The length of the paper is to be no less than 5 pages and no greater than 8 pages, excluding title and reference pages. APA format is required with both a title page and reference page. Use the required components of the review as Level 1 headings (upper and lower case, centered, boldface). Note: Introduction—write an introduction but do not use ″Introduction″ as a heading in accordance with the rules put forth in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (2010, p. 63). Preparing Your Behavior Change Intervention Paper Review the readings, lesson notes, and digital media about behavior change and behavior change theories, the health belief model (HBM), and the transtheoretical model (TTM). For the purpose of this paper: Select a population. For example, African American women aged X to X who live in [insert a geographic location]. Select a health behavior that you wish to change within this population. Provide a desсrіption of why the health behavior is important to change within this population (using the literature to develop an epidemiological profile of the health behavior′s impact on the health of your selected population). Describe the various factors that influence the behavior within your selected population. For example, individual, interpersonal, community, organizational, policy, neighborhood level factors. Provide a brief desсrіption of the HBM and TTM. Which theoretical framework (HMB or TTM) is best suited for the behavior change you selected within your identified population? Explain why. What behavior change techniques will you use? Why? (Use the theoretical framework to explain your rationale.) What might be some challenges in implementing this behavior change intervention?This criterion is linked to a Learning Outcome Introduction Introduces the purpose of the paper to gain an understanding of how health behavior theory is linked to behavior change interventions. Population and Behavior Change Selection Describes the population selected and identifies health behavior change. Explains why the behavior change is critical for this population using evidence from the literatureFactors of Influence and the HBM/TTM Describes which factors influence the behavior selected within the selected population. Describes the HBM and the TTM and which of these are best suited for the behavior change selected within the selected population, given the identified factors of influence. Be sure to use examples from selected readings, threaded discussions, or other course materials to support your assertions.Techniques and Challenges Describes behavior change techniques used and potential challenges in implementing the behavior change intervention. Be sure to use the theoretical framework selected to explain the rationale behind the techniques used. Also be sure to use readings and other course materials to support your assertions. Conclusion An effective conclusion identifies the main ideas and major conclusions from the body of the paper. Summarize the importance of behavior theory and its impact on behavior change intervention effort.Clarity of Writing Use of Standard English grammar and sentence structure. No spelling errors or typographical errors.
