Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The health belief model proposes that our beliefs about the effectiveness, ease, and consequences of doing (or not doing) a certain behaviour determine whether we do (or do not do) that behaviour. This can include beliefs about our perceived susceptibility to a health issue, the severity and potential consequences of the issue, and the efficacy of preventative measures. Other factors, such as self-efficacy and social influence, can also play a role in shaping our health beliefs and behaviour.
