    The document discusses the ecologic model, which provides frameworks for understanding the multiple interacting determinants of health behavior. It outlines the history and principles of ecologic models, including that they consider influences at multiple levels and how those levels interact. Several specific ecologic models are described, such as the Clark-Leavell Triad Model and Lever Model. The document also provides examples of how ecologic models can be applied to understand individual health cases by mapping the various social, behavioral, and biological factors that influence health outcomes and diseases.

    BACKGROUND & HISTORY OF ECOLOGIC MODELS

    Ecology Based on a rich conceptual tradition in the behavioral sciences Accdg. to Stokols (1992), ecologic models focus on the nature of peoples transactions with their physical and socio-cultural surroundings.

    GUIDING PRINCIPLES OF ECOLOGIC MODEL

    4 Principles of Ecologic Model 1. Multiple levels of factors influence perspectives are proposed. 2. Influences interact across levels 3. Multi-level interventions should be most effective in changing behavior 4. Ecological models are most powerful when they are behavior-specific

    TYPES OF ECOLOGIC MODEL
