課程描述
基層衛生照護的社會和行為基礎課程旨在提供必要的知識和技巧,以便在診斷(了解)社區、個人和組織的行為,以及跨文化背景下和開發中國家中的變革進程,讓你在健康行為的生態模式範圍內,規劃合符文化的基層衛生照護。
課程宗旨
完成課程後,你學會:
- 概述社會和行為科學理論在規劃和執行基層衛生照護項目時的作用。
- 應用社會和行為科學相關理論來診斷和了解個人、社會網路、組織性,社區和決策者關乎規劃、執行、評價和維持以社區為基礎的基層衛生照護計劃的行為。

課程原理
研究生教育是自發性學習。因此導師是知識源頭,而不是硬灌的導管,這意味著導師和學生是屬於促進主動學習的伙伴關係。因為一個學期內要消化大量的資料,全體都要分擔學習的責任。吸收新觀念,主要是要透過自我發現的過程。

課程形式
這課程是以生態模式為基礎,從較廣闊的社會、政治、文化和經濟背景來檢視健康行為。每單元探索生態模式的不同層次。
每星期都有講課和實驗室作業。每個實驗室作業,你應與編定的小組合作,非正式地討論實驗室題目。在實驗室作業到期前幾天,學員利用LiveTalk,在線上討論實驗室作業。你要做好準備,發問和提出討論。
實驗室作業
這課程有七次實驗室作業,是評分的全部。
大多數實驗含小組和個人部份。在這情況下,小組先討論題目,分享經驗和意見;然後成員個別完成作業,數日後以電郵遞交。七次實驗作業中有兩次是小組作業。課程開始的第一個星期,會派發小組作業。編排小組時,會盡可能安排同一時間區的學員編在同組,方便聯絡。學員盡可能利用電郵、DED Messenger(即時對話)、BBS、或其他通訊方法來進行小組的工作。
開課當天就開通全部實驗,所以你可以事先準備,根據你和小組最佳的速度,彈性地完成作業。全部實驗的觀念都是和講義有關連,所以在完成實驗作業前,最好先溫習講義。
實驗題目:
- 實驗1:基層衛生照護的社會科學—生態模式、健康行為分析
- 實驗2:應用和比較健康信仰模式、社會學習理論和理性行動理論
- 實驗3:應用PRECEDE架構和跨理論模式
- 實驗4:社會支援和社會網路
- 實驗5:「社區變革」案例
- 實驗6:「組織性變革」案例
- 實驗7:政策利益相關者的分析
小組成員的責任:
小組的實驗工作,目的在彼此分享知識和技巧,大家從中得益。要做到最理想,小組成員必須:
- 準時出席小組安排的會議(例如在小組安排的時間,透過DED Messenger,在LiveTalk線上討論。)
- 小組討論時作出有意義的貢獻
- 準時完成小組作業
- 以高品質的態度準備工作
- 抱持著合作和支持態度
- 全面參與小組專題,爭取成功

Course Description
Social and Behavioral Foundations of Primary Health Care aims at providing you with the knowledge and skills needed to diagnose (understand) community, individual, and organizational behaviors and change processes in developing countries and in cross-cultural settings as a foundation for planning culturally appropriate primary health care (PHC) in the context of the ecological model of health behavior.
Course Objectives
After completion of this course, you will be able to do the following:
- Outline the contributions of social and behavioral science theory in the planning and implementation of PHC programs.
- Apply relevant social and behavioral theories to diagnose and understand individual, social network, organizational, community, and policy-maker behaviors associated with the planning, implementation, evaluation, and maintenance of community-based primary health care programs.
- Identify the factors that promote and inhibit community involvement in PHC program development and implementation, and outline indigenous management strategies to sustain PHC at the community level.

Course Philosophy
Graduate education is a self-directed approach to learning. Thus, the instructor is more of a resource than a vessel from which knowledge is poured. This means that the student and the instructor are engaged in a partnership that fosters active learning. Because there is a sizable amount of information to cover in only a term, all parties must share the responsibility for learning. It is largely through the process of self-discovery that new concepts are internalized.

Course Format
The course is based around the ecological model that views health behavior in broader social, political, cultural, and economic contexts. Each module explores a different level of the ecological model.
Each week consists of lectures and lab assignments. For each lab assignment, you're encouraged to work together in assigned groups to informally discuss lab topics. Several days before each lab assignment is due, the class will meet online in a LiveTalk session to discuss the lab assignment. Please come prepared to ask questions and initiate discussion.
Lab Assignments
There are seven lab assignments during the course, which constitute 100% of your grade.
Most labs contain both a small group component plus an individual component. In these instances, the groups will first discuss the topics, sharing experiences and ideas; then members will individually write up the assignments to be submitted via email a few days later. Two of the seven labs will be conducted solely as group efforts. You will receive group assignments during the first week of class. All groups will be formed with an effort to put together people in same time zone to make communications easier. You are encouraged to use email, DED Messenger (live chats with audio), the BBS, or any other communication mechanism to conduct group work.
All labs are accessible on the first day of the course so that you can plan ahead and work flexibly to complete the assignments, if you would like to, according to your and your group's optimal pacing. All labs, though, are tied conceptually to the lectures, so it is ideal to review the corresponding lecture material before completing the labs.
Lab topics:
- Lab 1: Social Sciences in PHC - Ecological Model, Health Behavior Analysis
- Lab 2: Applying and Comparing HBM, SLT, and TRA
- Lab 3: Applying PRECEDE Framework and Transtheoretical Model
- Lab 4: Social Support and Social Networks
- Lab 5: Community Change Case Studies
- Lab 6: Organizational Change Case Studies
- Lab 7: Policy Stakeholder Analysis
Group members' responsibilities:
The goal of small group work in the labs is for you to share your knowledge and skills with your fellow group members, and for all group members to benefit from the mutual sharing. For this to optimally take place, each group member should do the following:
- Punctually attend group sessions as scheduled (DED Messenger and chats in LiveTalk area as scheduled by groups)
- Contribute meaningfully to group discussions
- Complete the group assignments on time
- Prepare work in a quality manner
- Demonstrate a cooperative and supportive attitude
- Contribute overall to the success of the project
