Behavioral and Social Aspects of Public Health

The course examines the application of social and behavioral sciences knowledge to public health. The basic principles of psychology, sociology, anthropology, and other social sciences are used to underscore the social determinants and consequences of health and health-seeking behaviors, and to understand the contribution of socio-behavioral science to our understanding of the distribution, etiology, and solution of public health problems through planned interventions.
