    About the Course

    Health behavior lies at the core of any successful public health intervention. While we will examine the behavior of individual in depth in this
    course, we also recognize by way of the Ecological Model that individual behavior is encouraged or constrained by the behavior of families,
    social groups, communities, organizations and policy makers. We recognize that behavior change is not a simplistic process but requires an
    understanding of dimensions like frequency, complexity and cultural congruity. Such behavioral analysis is strengthened through the use of a
    toolkit of theoretical models and practical frameworks. While many of such models and frameworks exist, in this course we w...

    I liked it a lot; the way the case studies and presentations, supported by the analysis made by the professor in the diagrams, greatly facilitated the understanding of the models and their practical application for the design of effective health interventions. In addition, it was fascinating to identify all the factors that influence people's decisions and behaviors about health actions and the way in which we can orient a positive response to the interventions and actions that we can include as reinforcement of the desired behavior change. It will be very useful in my next designing and planning a health intervention

    This course would be decent, if it had more people, and required three reviews rather than two. Unfortunately having only two peer reviewers increases the option of one peer reviewer completely messing with the outcome.

    this course was self-explanatory yet confusing. I already took courses like this before but the instruction on how to do the assignment was misleading. It was impossible to know what was required!
