phc-112 health education and promotion / please i need the answer very quickl
Introduction
The focus this week is the role of research in health promotion. We will consider the four phases of research in the design of health promotions programs. These are: preliminary research, program development research, monitoring, and evaluation. Preliminary research focuses on diagnosis of the existing situation, the environmental and behavioral causes of health problems and the determinants of these causes. Program development research facilitates the development of programs and action plans. Monitoring aims to examine the ways in which programs are implemented, including the processes of participation and collaboration, in order to keep track of and/or improve the program. Evaluation involves a review of the results achieved in the program in terms of its effectiveness, efficiency and validity.
We will also consider the types and styles of research. Types of research include qualitative and quantitative. Some common research styles discussed in your textbook include experimental, survey, documentary-historical, and field study. During a group project this week, you will have an opportunity to conduct preliminary research to identify behavioral and environmental factors contributing to a health problem.
