FNH 473 Video 1: Introduction to Health Behaviour Theories

FNH 473: Nutrition Education in the Community is a public health nutrition course in the Food, Nutrition and Health (FNH) program at the University of British Columbia (UBC). Students in this class actively learn and apply theories and methods related to nutrition education and health promotion.

In this video, I present an overview of health behaviour theories -- an essential part of health promotion program planning! The 'Health Belief Model' is discussed in detail, as an example of one popular health behaviour theory. Enjoy!
