A student regularly chooses to vape at social gatherings with friends. Which determinant of health does this behaviour represent?
Health behaviour — the student’s choice to use a tobacco product.
A school introduces a respectful relationships program because it offers more engaging activities than the previous program. Which characteristic of the innovation is demonstrated?
Relative advantage — the new program is perceived as better than what was previously used.
A person moves through infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and retirement. What concept describes these stages from birth to death?
Life cycle — the stages of life from birth to death, including key transition points.
A school health promotion program is delivered according to its planned schedule, but staff discover that it costs more than expected and requires additional resources. Which RE-AIM dimension evaluates these factors?
Implementation — assesses fidelity to the intervention protocol, including time, cost and resources.
What is the second most spoken language in the World?
Mandarin/Chinese
A teenager lives in a remote Queensland community where the nearest hospital is several hours away and public transport is limited. Which determinant of health best explains this barrier to accessing healthcare?
Geographic location — living in a remote area affects access to health services.
A school is considering an online health education program, but many students have limited internet access and prefer paper-based learning. Which diffusion process variable could influence the program’s adoption in this setting?
Features of the setting — access to technology and the learning context may affect adoption.
After finishing Year 12, a student begins university and takes on the role of a university student rather than a school student. What concept describes this change in role and status?
Transition — a change in roles and statuses that represents a distinct departure from previous roles and statuses. (post-schooling transition)
A health organisation invites 500 eligible teenagers to participate in a healthy relationships program. Of these, 350 participate. Which RE-AIM dimension is being measured?
Reach — the number and proportion of individuals who participate in or are exposed to the innovation.
What is the capital of Canada?
Ottawa
A family experiences financial hardship, making it difficult to afford nutritious food, stable housing and private healthcare. Which determinant of health is most clearly demonstrated?
Socioeconomic factors — low income can limit access to nutritious food, secure housing and health services, potentially increasing the risk of poor physical and mental health.
Before introducing a new mental health initiative across the entire school, the principal allows one Year 11 class to test it and provide feedback. Which characteristic of the innovation is demonstrated?
Trialability — the innovation can be tested before a wider decision to adopt it is made.
A 19-year-old moves out of the family home to live independently but returns to live with their parents a year later. What type of transition does returning home represent?
Reverse transition — a return to a prior role or status.
After a mental health promotion program, students report increased confidence and improved wellbeing, but some students also report unexpected negative outcomes. Which RE-AIM dimension considers both types of outcomes?
Effectiveness — evaluates the innovation’s impact on important outcomes, including positive, negative, expected and unexpected effects.
How many countries are there in Africa?
54
A community has few shaded walking paths, limited public parks and busy roads that make walking unsafe. Which determinant of health is this?
Environmental factors — the built environment may discourage physical activity and limit opportunities for recreation, potentially increasing the risk of physical health problems.
Several teachers support a new health initiative, have the skills to deliver it and actively encourage their colleagues to participate. Which diffusion process variable is demonstrated, and how might it influence adoption?
Characteristics of people — (change agents) teachers’ attitudes, skills and knowledge can encourage adoption and increase the likelihood that the initiative will be implemented.
Two students experience different pathways: one completes Year 12 before entering university, while the other leaves school before completing Year 12. Identify the type of transition experienced by each student, based on typical social expectations.
On-time transition: completing Year 12 before progressing to university. Off-time transition: leaving school before completing Year 12, as this departs from the typical expected pathway.
A new health promotion initiative is offered to 30 schools, but only nine agree to implement it. Explain which RE-AIM dimension this demonstrates and why the number of participating schools matters.
Adoption — measures the number, proportion and representativeness of organisations willing to use the innovation. The low uptake may limit the initiative’s overall impact across the region.
Which TWO sports have both Mr Danbury and Miss Wildie played/competed in? (not necessarily together)
Netball/ cheerleading
A social media trend promotes extreme dieting as the ideal body shape. Many teenagers begin restricting their food intake because they believe this is necessary to fit in. Identify two different determinants of health operating in this scenario and explain how each influences health.
Broad features of society — social media, cultural values and beauty ideals influence attitudes and expectations. Health behaviour — restrictive dietary practices can negatively affect nutrition and physical health.
A new school wellbeing program is introduced. After six months, only two of ten schools in the region have implemented it, and participation within those schools remains low. Identify the diffusion process variable.
Rate of adoption — the speed and extent to which organisations adopt an innovation.
After experiencing a serious injury, a young adult changes their career plans, stops participating in their usual activities and adopts a different long-term approach to their health. The effects continue for many years. Identify the two concepts that describe this change.
Life event: the serious injury, a significant occurrence that may produce serious and long-lasting effects. Turning point: the injury produces a lasting shift in the person’s life course trajectory and future pathways.
Twelve months after a health promotion initiative begins, a school has embedded it into its annual policies and routines. However, an evaluation finds that individual participants no longer demonstrate the improvements recorded during the program. Analyse how the two levels of the same RE-AIM dimension are demonstrated in this scenario.
Maintenance — at the organisational level, the initiative has become part of routine policies and practices. At the individual level, the benefits have not been sustained. Individual maintenance is assessed through long-term outcomes at least six months after the most recent innovation contact.
