Description
"Health Psychology is introduction to the contribution psychology has made to our understanding of health. Anthony J. Curtis begins by defining health psychology and describes the main theoretical models which underpin it. He then considers the additional fields of social epidemiology and health policy. Pain and pain management, doctor - patient communication, psychological factors in illness, the impact of lifestyles on health, and stress and stress management are all discussed. Psychological theory is applied to health psychology practice throughout to show the relevance of theories, models and health psychology research to everyday health behaviours.". "Health Psychology is tailor-made for the student new to higher-level study. With its helpful textbook features provided to assist in examination and learning techniques, it should interest all introductory psychology students, as well as those training for the caring services, whether nurses, paramedics or social workers."--BOOK JACKET.
