Please do Module 7 part 1 as 5 pages with all the requirement is asking

Please use these articles

An article I found is about the decision behind what employee's receive a promotion.

"Understanding the decision-making process for health promotion programming at small to midsized businesses" by  Hughes MC (Links to an external site.) Patrick DL (Links to an external site.) Hannon PA (Links to an external site.) Harris JR (Links to an external site.) Ghosh DL (Links to an external site.) .

The article is from 2011 so it's within the publication year requirements. 

 

I also found this one from 2016.

"Securing foundations and advancing frontiers: Prevention and promotion effects on judgment & decision making"  by  E Tory Higgins (Links to an external site.) James FM Cornwell
