Introduction[edit | edit source]
Background:
The negative health consequences experienced by overweight and obese children are wide ranging and include an increased risk of hypertension, type 2 diabetes and asthma. Children's mental wellbeing has also been shown to be negatively affected by overweight and obesity. The health risks of an unhealthy weight in childhood continue into adulthood and can result in an increased risk of conditions in life including cardiovascular disease..................
Epidemiology:
The Scottish Health Survey 2011 reports that:
Learning Outcomes[edit | edit source]
By the end of this Wiki the reader will be able to:
- Recognize demographic and psycho-social aspects underpinning childhood obesity.
- Describe theories that shape and influence behaviour and attitudes.
- To apply behavioural/attitudinal theories to effectively implement strategies to combat childhood obesity in (primary) school.
- To evaluate the effectiveness of your strategy to change the behaviours of the children.
Theories of Behaviour Change and Attitude [edit | edit source]
Changing Attitude:
Social Cognitive Theory:
Theory of Planned Behaviour:
The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) suggests that behaviour is dependent on one’s intention to perform the behaviour. Intention is determined by an individual’s attitude and subjective norms.
Behaviour is also determined by an individual’s perceived behavioural control, defined as an individual’s perceptions of their ability or feelings of self-efficacy to perform behaviour. This relationship is typically dependent on the type of relationship and the nature of the situation.
Transtheoretical (Stages of Change) Model:
