Behavior Change Campaigns
When thinking about the government conducting behavior change campaigns in the United States, the Executive branch has the most influence in conducting these campaigns. Firstly, the goal of a behavior change campaign is to shape the minds of particular group, or individuals that it's directed towards, meaning the government must effectively control growing problems that we face as a society so that the particular causes and effects of this issues can be address in the best way possible. Therefore, being able to reach an ultimate goal in an efficient manner. For example, childhood obesity has been a huge problem that has recently surfaced, in 2008 a study was conducted by the government to measure the severity of this particular problem. The

    Behavioral/Bioscience as It Affects the Theory and Concepts of Health Promotions

    Most health promotion theories come from the behavioral and social sciences, borrowing heavily from disciplines such as psychology, sociology, marketing, consumer behaviors, management and political science. Such diversity reflects the fact that health promotion practice is not only concerned with individual health behaviors, but also with the organization of society and the role of policy, organizational and community structures in promoting health.…

    Support Positive Behaviour Outcome Two

    By rewarding positive behaviour it encourages the child to carry on seeking rewards and also shows other children what they would receive if they emulate this behaviour. This in turn will make the classroom experience much more pleasant for all children and staff and, therefore, enable the teacher’s and teaching assistants to teach a lesson without any disruption from inappropriate behaviour. Children may try to gain attention by displaying bad behaviour, it is important not to give the child the attention they are looking for and give the attention to the children who are behaving properly.…

    Impact of Government Laws on Obesity in the United States

    I admire Michelle Obama for choosing obesity as her cause, it is extremely important. Changing the look of the food pyramid and creating “My plate” is all well and good, but forcing Americans to eat off that plate is not. Creating laws to dictate what Americans can eat is not something one governing body can do. The intention of the laws is honorable, but the execution of a solution is one of a dictatorship. What the government should be doing is suggesting healthier lifestyles, showing the benefits of that, and offering optional programs to those who chose to partake in them. Perhaps creating incentive programs to those who follow steps to a healthier lifestyle. Then, Americans feel as if they chose to get healthier themselves instead of being dictated to do so. Many people respond better to positive reinforcements, such as an incentive program, instead of negative reinforcements, like taking away the cups sizes they drink from, or the salt they use to add that bit of taste to their favorite food.…

    My Behavior Change Project

    The behavior change project for me was a very rewarding process because I really felt like I was able to help someone. I started off in the beginning trying to help my friend lose weight because he had always told me that he wanted too. Throughout the six weeks, he lost a total of 10 pounds. It wasn’t always easy throughout because it took a lot of planning and hard work to achieve what he wanted to. As time went on, his goals became easier for him. He worked 3 times a week (missed only one!) and made sacrifices in his diet. Although he did not meet his goal, he still did a very good job. I guided my client to develop goals and objectives from the beginning of our first meeting. I told him that I did not want to pressure him in doing something he doesn’t want to do. However, he was very determined and asked for my help for some of them. Through out the weeks, we did change some of the goals and objectives depending on how he did the week earlier. I did tell him that a gradual build up to working out and diet would be best. Also, I asked him what would motivate him and incorporated that into our system.…

    Behavior Change

    Keeping up a behavior can be hard, “the motivation must come from within.” For the past 23 days I have been striving to change and succeed, by the 22nd of October, in two specific nutritional behavior goals. One of them was to intake at least 30 grams of fiber on weekdays and at least 25 grams on weekends. The other was to reduce my sodium intake by a quarter, on weekdays, of what it was per day and reduce it by an eighth on weekends. This preparation all started about a week before my 23 days of transformation. In the three beginning days I tracked my diet and found that my low fiber and high sodium consumptions were eye-opening problems. My average fiber intake per day rested at 21.18g, which was significantly lower than my goal of 38g per day. As this issue arose so did my awareness that multiple aspects of my health were at risk. For example, my low fiber intake could place me in danger of developing heart disease. Fiber nutrients reduce the chance of disease like heart disease, diabetes, and many other frightful illnesses. In addition, foods that consist of fiber provide a feeling of fullness without additional calories being added to a diet. As for my Sodium intake, I was recommended a target of 1500mg a day but I was actually devouring a skyrocketing 3959.4mg a day. Without thinking twice I knew I had to make significant behavior changes. Concerning my towering sodium intake, I found that high sodium consumption makes the body preserve more water, which can raise the blood volume and, in turn, increase blood pressure. Considering my high blood pressure it would be essential and crucial to lower my sodium intake. Fortunately, the data collected demonstrated that the amount of sodium I have been taking in each day has been playing a role in my elevated blood pressure. After reviewing this data and conducting research on these two nutrients I felt very serious about changing my dieting…

    Behavior Change

    I choose for my behavior change project not to eat fast food more than once a week. As an athlete, it is very important for me to have a good nutrition. But on the other side, as a human being it is tough to make always the right decision and just to eat healthy food. It was the only behavior change I could think about because I normally live very healthy. I do a lot of sports, my weight is perfect, and I also do not have any other health problems. I designed my project to limit fast food to once a week. I think it is a reasonable decision, as a balanced nutrition can handle bad input once a week. Also, I do not want to miss the taste of a good burger or some hot wings.…

    Advertising and Behavior Control

    In the article “Advertising and Behavior Control” there were many arguments for and against advertising. The first and the biggest problem Robert L. Arrington has against advertising is “puffery.” The reason/reasons why Arrington has a problem with puffery is due to the fact that the seller makes exaggerated, or suggestive claims about a product. His overall argument on puffery is that it isn’t just “bragging” but it is bragging that is designed to persuade you to want the item or product being sold. The bragging goes so far as they convince the viewer (of the advertisement) they need the product. Puffery ultimately leads to manipulation, exploitation, and control over what people think of the product. Although Arrington has reasons against puffery, he also points out examples as to why puffery is good for advertising. As stated on page 284 “businesses just give the consumer what he/she wants; if they didn’t they wouldn’t stay in business very long. Proof that consumer wants the precuts advertised is given by the fact that he bus them, and indeed often returns to by them again and again.” Puffery ultimately leads to the customer purchasing the product. If puffery is not used then as Arrington states businesses would go out of business very quickly. Puffery is not the only argument for or against advertising Arrington had but definitely was is strongest one.…
