Akademik Veri Yönetim Sistemi
This course is constructed around a series of cases
in which behavioral interventions are designed to improve health, prevent
disease, or mitigate the effects of chronic health problems of individuals.
After the instructor will give lectures on basic principles of behavioral
modification, the students will be tested on their understanding of these
principles by giving two exams. In order to teach how to prepare and present
the cases, first the instructor will present asthma, chronic pain, bulimia and
smoking cases, and then the students will present their cases. In each case,
the health issue to be addressed will be considered in the context of the
individual’s overall repertoire and life circumstances. A behavioral analysis
of the problem will be followed by the design of an intervention plan based on
behavioral principles. Besides behavioral principles that can be used for the
chosen medical disorder, students are expected to give medical, psychosocial
and psychological information related to the disorder
