HEALTH PROMOTION CASE STUDY QUESTIONS
BELOW IS A SET OF FACTS ASSOCIATED WITH A CASE STUDY INVOLVING THE
APPLICATION OF SOCIAL/BEHAVIORAL THEORY VIA THE PRECEDE-PROCEED
PLANNING PROCESS TO DEVELOP A HEALTH PROMOTION PROGRAM. PLEASE
RESPOND TO QUESTIONS 28-32 THAT FOLLOWS THE CASE STUDY.
CASE STUDY: RURAL OBESITY INTERVENTION
Fact a: You are leading a team that includes the Tennessee Department of Health and Vanderbilt
University on a CDC-funded effort to reduce obesity among rural youth in the state of
Tennessee. You have four (grant) years to achieve results.
Fact b: According to State Health Department figures, obesity levels have always been somewhat
high in rural counties, but in recent years they have even been higher, together with
corresponding increases in diabetes and heart disease.
Fact c: Most public high schools in these areas require only one year of physical education
classes. Middle schools have not emphasized this either, with students being able to opt out for
various reasons. In addition, most middle and high schools only had part-time school nurses, and
very little budget for health education activities.
Fact d: Income levels are generally low in the target rural areas, with jobs primarily in mining
(mountain counties), agriculture, and low-paid assembly work. Unemployment is higher among
men than women. There are few jobs for youth. The primary centers for youth social and
physical activities are through churches.
Fact e: Surveys and focus groups previously done by Vanderbilt University show the following:
A large percentage of people eat fast food at least three times per week. 65% of people who had
a body mass index of over 30 did not consider themselves “obese” or at any particular health
risk. A “stout body” was viewed as normal, even an indication of “not being hungry.” Eating was
also viewed as a major element of social gatherings, and these gatherings featured “meat and
5
potatoes” fare (e.g., ham, potato casserole, sweet potato pie, etc.). These attitudes crossed
racial/ethnic lines and were common among both Caucasian and African-American respondents.
And, one of the most popular country singers in the area is himself very large.
Fact f: Previous public information campaigns to the general public (“It’s right to eat light...”),
using bus posters, public service ads on billboards, and information given out at doctor’s offices,
have had little or no impact.
28. What information would you consider appropriate for Social Assessment?
A. The target population lives in a low-income, rural area, with more unemployment
among men and youth than women.
B. The target population has few school health and physical activity resources
available.
C. Low levels of obesity exist in the target population
D. Two of the above
29. What information would you consider appropriate for Educational/Ecological Assessment?
A. Awareness regarding obesity – 65 percent of people with a BMI over 30 did not
consider themselves obese.
B. Social norms favor large body size,
C. An influential community figure (popular country singer) is himself obese.
D. All of the above
30. Considering that you have four years to achieve results, and that multi-level interventions are
often the most effective, which of the following program components would you utilize to
achieve your goal of reducing obesity and its health consequences? [NOTE: This question
calls for three specific components of an overall health promotion intervention.
A. A community-wide communications campaign to increase awareness about
obesity as a problem and to present behavior-change alternatives such as realistic
diet options and physical exercise.
B. Increasing health education components in the schools (with information about
obesity and its consequences), together with an increase in physical activity
programs (required physical activity, sports/recreation opportunities) for students
and families.
C. The introduction of church-based education sessions, and diet and exercise
support groups that would be engaged in a range of activities, including cookouts,
sports activities, hiking/walking, etc.
D. All of the above
31. What social/behavioral theories might be applicable to the facts at hand and the intervention
you propose?
A. Social cognitive theory: The use of “social models” (such as the country singer) in
communications campaigns to promote change in diet and physical exercise; and
an increase in self-efficacy regarding changes in diet and physical exercise
promoted through church-based programs.
B. Health Belief Model: In school-based education, curriculum components that
increase the perception of susceptibility and severity with respect to obesity, and
also seek to lower perceived barriers to behavior change.
C. Social network theory: Implementing diet/exercise programs in key social
6
networks such as those at church, in order to build on the network influence to
support behavior change.
D. All of the above
32. Considering that you have four years, what could you do to evaluate the intervention you
proposed?
A. PROCESS: For Component One – track the number of communications
materials/programs produced and distributed. Component Two – Document
change in number of health education activities (about obesity), documenting new
physical activity programs implemented and attendance at those programs.
Component Three – Document the number of educational sessions implemented
and support groups created, with attendance numbers; track the number of support
group activities and attendance at those activities.
B. IMPACT: Using periodic surveys (as well as in-class questionnaires for schoolbased activities), assess change in knowledge about the risks of obesity and what
can be done to prevent it, as well as self-reports about the number of people who
engage in regular physical activity and who eat lower-fat foods as part of their
diet.
C. OUTCOME: Using State Health Department data assess change in obesity
prevalence and morbidity/mortality rates from obesity-related diseases such as
diabetes or cardiovascular disease.
