Social Ecological Model

T‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‌‌‌‍he Social Ecological Model (SEM) is not a theory; however, it is a perspective that allows public health professionals to recognize the dynamic interplay between many levels of influence that affect health behavior: intrapersonal, interpersonal, institutional, community, and societal. For this week's d‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‌‌‌‍iscussion, select a health behavior and explain how factors/influences at each SEM level might influence the likelihood or frequency of the behavior. Then, discuss which levels of influence you would address if you were creating a public health program to increase or decrease the frequency of the behavior‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‌‌‌‍.
