Courtesy of Amazon, picked up my first textbook in nearly a decade for a class I’m taking at George Mason called Foundations of Health Education and Behavior.
I may regret taking a class without a posted syllabus (kinda like taking a job without interviewing the boss). But I couldn’t bring myself to stick with the other class I had registered for … an intro to biostatistics with wicked expensive books and weeks worth of SPSS.
If I apply for the MPH, I’ll have to take the latter, but for now, am gonna stick with the classes that interest me!
It’s all in your attitude. Biostatistics was one of my favorites.
I took a similar class at the grad level, health psychology and behavior change. You will learn about stages of change, health belief model, theory of reasoned action, theory of planned behavior…
Very interesting stuff that really helped me in my mindful and intuitive eating nutrition counseling practice.
Enjoy!
