a criticism of the model would be....
internal and external cues to action are not well explained
it is a static model and does not take into account dynamic processes
Breast cancer study by Asci and Sahin (2011) showed...
before internvention 36% mothers had a breast examination, after 76% had an examination
HBM was not good at predicting likelihood of behaviour because didn't include self-efficacy
Diabetes study showed, long (2011).....
the scales used to measure HBM e.g. each other different factors, was very good at measuring likelihood of behaviour
that using HBM for diabetes doesn't work because diabetes is a chronic illness
Another limitation of the HBM would be.....
