Health Belief Model
First developed by Hochbaum, Rosenstock, and Kegels in 1950, it is a psychological
model that attempts to explain and predict an individuals health behavior. This is
observed by focusing on the attitude and beliefs of certain individuals. For people to
adopt recommended physical activity behaviors, they must perceive the threat of
disease and benefits of action must outweigh the perceived difficulties.
Macroanaytic, Trait-Oriented Coping Theories
Compiled by Krohne, it is established in two central constructs to understand cognitive
responses to stress. First is vigilance which is the orientation toward stressful aspects of
an encounter and cognitive avoidance, the averting of attention from any stress-related
information. Approaches to these conceptions are repression-sensitization which is
where individuals tend to deny the existence of the stress, monitoring-blunting which is
the seeking of information under the threat or stress and avoidance of information, and
attention-rejection which is the focusing of attention on the stressor or rejecting it.
