Phase 3 : Educational and Ecological diagnosis – determine what to do in order to change the behavioral and environmental factors in Phase 3, taking into account predisposing factors (knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, values, and confidence); enabling factors (availability of resources, accessibility of services, government laws and policies, issue-related skills), and reinforcing factors (largely the influence of significant others in the social environment). (20 points)
Example: There are a few different ways to utilize this phase. 1. I can collect my own data using surveys on HPV vaccine rates at Ole Miss. How many people are vaccinated and assess knowledge attitudes and beliefs, values. OR, I could look at other data that perhaps has been conducted on other campus or at least in college age students if I didn’t have time to conduct surveys.
