Items related to Health and Human Behavior
HEALTH AND HUMAN BEHAVIOR is a survey text which takes a broad approach to the study of the science that connects behavior to health and health to behavior. Taking an epidemiological approach to the field, the text goes beyond the study of psychological processes in the individual such as stress and coping or personality factors to examine the interrelationship between health and human behavior from a variety of perspectives. Written by three leading scholars in the field. HEATH AND HUMAN BEHAVIOR has twenty chapters divided into four sections: Methods and Issues; Stress and Coping; Chronic Illnesses; Health Behavior and Health Promotion. The text provides up-to-date discussions of such current issues as the health care system, problems in compliance with medical recommendations, and social support and its relationship to illness. The major chronic illnesses (cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and AIDS) are covered in depth, and the role of human behavior in all aspects of these diseases is discussed in detail. "Focus on Women" boxes provide timely information about women's health issues in many chapters, and material covered in the "Focus on Minorities" boxes provides coverage of the health issues unique to our ethnically diverse society.
