Learning outcomes
Unit Learning Outcomes express learning achievement in terms of what a student should know, understand and be able to do on completion of a unit. These outcomes are aligned with the graduate attributes. The unit learning outcomes and graduate attributes are also the basis of evaluating prior learning.
On completion of this unit, students should be able to:
compare multiple definitions of health and subsequent implications for engagement with health services
align influences on pain/symptom experience with adherence to treatment
describe alignments between personality traits, emotions and health behaviours
discuss primary, secondary and tertiary health behaviour change alongside relevant psychological models of health
