    Study Notes

    Social Cognitive Theory (SCT)

    • SCT stands for Social Cognitive Theory, which examines the interactions between personal factors, behavior, and the environment.
    • Three primary internal personal factors in SCT are cognitive processes, emotional responses, and self-efficacy beliefs.
    • Self-efficacy refers to one's belief in their ability to achieve desired outcomes.

    Behavioral Change Theories

    • Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) emphasizes bidirectional interactions between personal factors, behaviors, and environmental influences.
    • TPB influences behavior through the key concept of intention, which predicts actions based on attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control.
    • Continuum theories understand behavior change on a smooth scale, while stage models view it in distinct stages.
    • Precaution Adoption Process Model (PAPM) distinguishes itself by focusing on readiness to act and decision-making stages regarding adopting new precautions or abandoning risky behaviors.

    Stages of the Precaution Adoption Process Model (PAPM)

    • A person in the "deciding" stage of PAPM is evaluating whether to take action.
    • In PAPM, stating "I have thought about it and decided not to get it" reflects the "decided not to act" stage.
    • "I have already gotten it" corresponds to the action stage in PAPM.
    • The main focus of PAPM is understanding the process of adopting new behaviors, especially health-related precautions.

    Program Sustainability and Ethical Considerations

    • A major concern for program sustainability is ensuring ongoing funding and community support.
    • Key factors for sustainability include stakeholder engagement, capacity building, and adapting to changing needs.
    • Reporting and documenting processes are essential for transparency, accountability, and knowledge sharing in program implementation.
    • Informed consent is critical to program safety as it ensures participants understand the risks and benefits involved.
    • Liability refers to the legal responsibility for injury or damages arising from program activities.
    • Negligence in program planning involves a failure to exercise care that results in harm to participants.
    • Doing something one should not do in program implementation is termed misconduct.
    • Reducing liability risk is crucial to protect practitioners and organizations from legal repercussions.

    Human Resource Management in Programs

    • Personnel planning, acquisition, development, and sanction (PADS) includes recruiting, training, and managing staff effectively to ensure program success.
