Exercise Health Promotion Program.

Design a Health Promotion program drawing upon health psychology
research to change someone’s exercise behavior.

have an Introduction, Methods and conclusion section.
In methods have subheadings such as design, materials, procedure, methods of evaluation etc.
I read papers that discuss other interventions or promotion programs and see how these are presented, discussed and described by the papers’ authors. This is the way you should write your own.
Design refers to if the study is Quantitative or qualitative.

Procedure refers to ALL the steps you will follow to recruit participants, inform them about the intervention, run the intervention and evaluate the intervention/promotion to see if is effective or not.
Remember to use scientific evidence to support scientifically the chosen intervention, the methods of evaluation etc. Use this evidence to support the chosen intervention and discuss its strengths and weaknesses.
In the body of the essay make sure to discuss
Design (briefly discuss the proposed design of the intervention, Quantitative,
Qualitative)
• Method and Procedure (what the intervention will involve describe the content
of the intervention, mode of delivery (e.g. in the form of sessions, online
intervention etc, duration of the intervention
• Ethical considerations (e.g. BPS code web: https://www.bps.org.uk/news-andpolicy/bps-code-ethics-and-conduct )
• Support of the programme/intervention
• Evaluation of the programme/intervention, how for example you will evaluate
the intervention (e.g. using questionnaires, when e.g. before and after the
intervention. Discuss in the wider context and in its relation to appropriate
theories.
• Discussion of strengths/weaknesses

Health Psychology models and theories include:

We have reviewed different models of Health Behaviour Change.
For example:
Ø Health Belief Model (HBM)
Ø The transtheoretical model (TMC)/ Stages of Change (SOC)
Ø Protection Motivation theory (PMT)
Ø Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA)
Ø Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB)
Overall, these models and theories overlap to a considerable extent, but each
emphasizes key concepts that significantly influence health behavior change
