Mental Health in Lifestyle Medicine
Published in Gia Merlo, Kathy Berra, Lifestyle Nursing, 2023
Using the HBM as part of a more comprehensive framework for assessment, nursing diagnosis, care planning, intervention, and evaluation allows for the identification of opportunities for nurses to integrate lifestyle medicine principles seamlessly into patient care. The primary constructs of the Health Belief Model are: Perceived Susceptibility: A person’s belief about their own risk of acquiring a health condition.Perceived Severity: An individual’s beliefs about the seriousness of a disease or the possible consequences if left undiagnosed or untreated.Perceived Benefits: One’s beliefs about the positive aspects of taking action to reduce risk or improve health.Perceived Barriers: A person’s beliefs about the possible negative aspects of taking action or the possible difficulties that could be encountered in doing so.Cues to Action: The factors that ultimately cause a person to act or change their behavior.Self-Efficacy: The belief that one can change behavior and achieve the desired outcome.
Management of Substance Abuse — What is Treatment and What Does It Accomplish?
Published in Frank Lynn Iber, Alcohol and Drug Abuse as Encountered in Office Practice, 2020
Compliance theory is an excellent model for examining the treatment of substance abuse. Usually the “health belief model” is employed to examine the patient’s expected benefits of a certain behavior and is of great value in predicting outcome.14 Several reviews of the health belief model emphasize the importance of self-management strategies to effect long-term change.15 Aspects of patient-therapist communication, satisfaction with outcome, locus of control, social support systems, and treatment disruption to lifestyle important in addiction therapy have all been evaluated.16,17

The Health Belief Model (HBM, e.g. Becker and Maiman, 1975), makes the assumption that perceived vulnerability to the disease, perceived seriousness of the disease, and degree of interest in health matters, when considered together, will determine an individual’s level of adherence. These variables will also be affected by cues to action (which can be internal –such as thoughts; or external –such as prompts) and further will be modified by experience. According to the HBM it is the individual’s subjective view of the components that is important. For a full description of the model, see Home and Weinman, Chapter 2.

A modification of the health belief model by Rosenstock et al. (1988) guided the exploration of perceptions of sexual health education, perceived threat (susceptibility and severity) of adverse sexual health outcomes, and benefits, disadvantages, and barriers to condom usage. The health belief model is consistently used to explain or predict health behaviors through examining health beliefs, such as the threat of a disease and the barriers and benefits associated with particular behaviors (e.g., condom usage). In this study, the health belief model will be used a priori to group (1) individual perceptions of sexual health education, (2) the perceived severity and susceptibility to pregnancy and STIs, and (3) the perceived benefits and barriers to condom usage. The health belief model is one of the most commonly used guiding frameworks in health education, disease prevention, and health promotion research and as such is an appropriate framework for this study (Tarkang & Zotor, 2015).

Focus groups can facilitate patient-centered strategies in aging research by targeting and addressing specific concerns of the population of interest (Barrios et al., 2016; Smith et al., 2017). A similar approach, grounded in the Health Belief Model, can be employed with Black American communities to help identify and better address concerns regarding aging and ADRD research. The Health Belief Model is a value-based model that perceives health behavior as a function of perceived susceptibility, perceived severity of disease, perceived benefits of current behavior, and perceived costs of/barriers to the desired behavior (Becker, 1974). The model has been used to better understand individual and community beliefs surrounding health conditions and health-related behaviors (Becker, 1974; Glanz, Rimer, & Viswanath, 1992).
Nutrition counseling and monitoring via tele-nutrition for healthy diet for people with spinal cord injury: A case series analyses

Real-time feedback, encouragement, and counseling that can be provided by tele-nutrition appear to be important factors for a successful nutrition intervention.24 The Health Belief Model provides a framework to address barriers to treatment adoption while honoring a patient’s individual beliefs. Discussing individual barriers and beliefs was a significant component in the creation of the participants’ inter-session SMART goals, which provided a digestible roadmap to meet their self-identified overarching enrollment goal (e.g. losing weight). Additionally, utilizing two-feedback approaches, photo-journaling application and tele-nutrition counseling, provided an immediate self-assessment on whether the food was on/off track as well as expert feedback from a dietitian with SCI-specific experience. The photo journaling app also provided the dietician and participant with a diary versus relying on an individual’s memory. The use of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Evidence-Based Analysis Toolkit provided evidence-based MNT suggestions paired with the photo journal’s intake log augmented resources for SCI-specific and individualized care. These components provide a model that may be modifiable for other patient populations.
