What D575 is really about

Health Psychology gives an overview of the biopsychosocial model and other holistic models of wellness, drawing on diverse cultural perspectives and on the theory and practice of health behavior change. Topics include social and cultural influences on health, stress and disease, the experience of illness and how lifestyle patterns shape chronic disease. The program guide lists three competencies: a personalized statement of health, a framework applied to assess well-being and a behavior change project.

Work students have shared shows a first task written as a personal statement of health drawing on community and research sources and a wellness framework, and a second task planning and reflecting on a behavior change with a SMART goal and health psychology theory. The student on this shelf is a composite; the research is real.

What D575’s tasks ask for

Across D575's two tasks you are generally asked to describe your own health using the biopsychosocial model and sources, apply a wellness framework to the factors affecting your well-being, and then plan a behavior change with a SMART goal, a theory of change, strategies, tracking and reflection.

Why D575 tasks come back for revision

D575 papers come back when the personal statement lists habits without linking them to biological, psychological and social factors, or when the behavior change plan names a theory but never uses its constructs to choose strategies. Goals that are not measurable are the other frequent return.

D575 questions, answered

Is D575 about my own health?

Yes. Both tasks ask you to reflect on your own health and behavior, so share only what you are comfortable sharing and keep it relevant to the rubric.

Which theory fits a D575 behavior change project?

The transtheoretical model, the health belief model and social cognitive theory are common choices. Use the one whose constructs you can turn into strategies.

Is the D575 student real?

No. The student is a composite written for the samples; the studies cited are real.
