1. Each Group will prepare a 15-minute presentation explaining one specific health behavior.

This behavior MUST differ from the behavior that you have chosen for your written assignments. These presentations must be clear and professional. Grades will be based on the clarity of the presentation, accuracy, and completeness of the information, application of a model, evaluation and original insight.

2. The presentation should include:

The significance of the health behavior Explain the public health significance of the behavior (i.e. provide statistics on the prevalence of the behavior, the population most at risk, etc.)

3. List at least two risk factors leading to the behavior.

A risk factor is any attribute, characteristic or exposure of an individual that increases the likelihood of developing a disease or injury. Some examples of the more important risk factors are underweight, unsafe sex, high blood pressure, tobacco and alcohol consumption, and unsafe water, sanitation and hygiene (WHO, 2015).

4. Indicate at least two health consequences/effects/impacts of the behavior.

Health effects (or health impacts) are changes in health resulting from exposure to a source. For example, several health consequences of smoking include heart disease, stroke, lung cancer.
