Document Summary

The bio-psychosocial model suggests that what health is may vary from culture to culture. Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well being. Within a culture what is health changes as the status quo is shaken. Evolution of activism consists of unions, medical research, consumerism, court awards, technology, commercialized medicine, and public and workforce changes. We have an active role to play in our own health, what we do and think impacts our health. Health is a complete set of well-being, physical well being (bio), mental well being (psycho), and social well being (social). Environmental and occupational medicine looked at what people do and its impact on health. Hippocrates observed the environment of the patient. Correlational studies compare changes in variables (cannot determine causality). Systematic research consists of systematic observation correlation, and controlled experiments. Attribution process naive psychology relates to what you think and its impact on health.
