Document Summary

Choose one health behaviour and change it for the better. Eg. , exercise, eating, helmet, seat belt, quit smoking, more positive outlook, study better. The way in which a person reacts to the environment. The way in which an organism works. Martin and pear: covert behaviours or cognitive behaviours. Feelings: covert behaviours are what people think, tantrums are overt behaviours, covert behaviours- things you cannot see, cognitions and emotions are a big part. Infants use behaviour instead of words so we must teach them to use words as expression. Ex, exercise is behaviour and losing weight is a product of that behaviour- most focus on target behaviour not the product. It is important to separate products of behaviour" from behaviour". E. g. , exercising is a behaviour: losing weight is a product of behaviour. It is important to separate behavioural labels" from actual behaviours. E. g. , hardworking" is a behavioural label, depression" is a behavioural label.
