“…Indicators of health within the concept of health promotion have been broadened to cover the positive aspects of health and well‐being 3 . Traditionally, health promotion research in nursing has been mainly directed toward the prevention of diseases and less to the positive and multidimensional constructs of health 4 …”

The concept of health contains aspects of social and mental well-being and not just the absence of disease. The concept of well-being is sometimes used interchangeably with the term happiness, although focus has been on other aspects as well. Here we explore associations between happiness and experience of stress at school, personal and social factors among 887 Norwegian school adolescents participating in a World Health Organization project on health-promoting schools. Happiness was measured by a one item question (ordered responses 1-4). The psychosocial factors were represented by an average score of 3-12 items. Odds ratios of feeling very/quite happy were calculated in multiple logistic regression analyses. An increasing degree of stress experience reduced the feeling of happiness significantly. Furthermore, increasing levels of general self-efficacy increased the odds of feeling happy, whereas the more specific measure of school self-efficacy showed no independent effect. Social support from teachers also enhanced happiness significantly. A less consistent pattern was found for support from peers, but the most happy pupils experienced significantly more support than pupils who reported being unhappy. No significant trend was found with decision control. We also explored associations between happiness and psychosomatic symptoms. Pupils feeling unhappy reported a particular symptom more often and they also had the highest mean number of reported symptoms. To evaluate whether these health indicators represent different dimensions of health, a comparison of strength of associations with common risk factors is made. Implications for health promotion practice are discussed.

“…4 Studies of disease and care management models that aim to limit "preventable" events by promoting self-management skills and maximizing adherence to standards of care demonstrate promise for reducing costs and improving care, 5 but more research is needed to determine which model and which components of each model generate the desired results. 2,[6][7][8][9][10] Two recently published review articles, one specific to diabetes, but neither isolating telephone interventions in their review, concluded that there was empirical evidence supporting the effectiveness of self-management training and disease management programs in improving disease control but that little is known about the individual intervention strategies. 11,12 The Diabetes Complications and Control Trial (DCCT), 13 which included telephone support, reported the longest follow-up and the most conclusive results but did not determine which components (eg, office visits, phone calls) of the intensive follow-up were most effective in lowering glycosated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and the improving microvascular complications.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the value of an intensive telephone follow-up as an additional component of a diabetes disease management program already shown to be effective in improving glycemic control, adherence with American Diabetes Association (ADA) standards of care, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL). The study involved a randomized controlled trial. The intervention group received a series of 12 weekly phone calls reinforcing base education and self-management skills. Five hundred and seven consenting patients, age 18 years or older, with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus referred to the hospital- based disease management program who had telephones and were able to complete surveys in English or Spanish were enrolled. Outcomes were evaluated at 3 and 12 months follow- up. Adherence to ADA standards of care, specifically annual eye exams, physician foot exams, foot self-exams, and pneumonia vaccination were significantly better with the added telephone intervention, but there were no differences between the groups on glycemic control, HRQOL, or patient satisfaction. The effectiveness of the disease management program was replicated with sustained improvement in glycemic control, HRQOL, and adherence to ADA standards. The additional telephone intervention further improved adherence to ADA guidelines for self-care and medical care but did not affect glycemic control or HRQOL.

“…They identify that both are events or incidents, implying that some occurrence must take place prior to, or as a consequence of, the concept. From the relational statements (Table 2) and definitions of HP, antecedents of HP were discovered: (i) previous decisions and responsibility on health (Kulbok and Baldwin, 1992; Morgan and Marsh, 1998; Buetow and Kerse, 2001), (ii) beliefs, attitudes, behaviours and perceptions (Rosenstock 1974; Pender et al , 2002; Wu and Pender, 2002), (iii) change of healthy lifestyle (Rosenstock 1974; Wang et al , 2000; Pender et al , 2002; Wu and Pender, 2002) and (iv) health challenges (Moore and Williamson, 1984; Smith, 1990). These antecedents are similar in that they are influenced by social context.…”

Health promotion (HP) is a multi‐dimensional and complex phenomenon. However, the concept has not been well‐defined and researchers used it in different ways. The aims of this concept analysis are to clarify the meaning of an existing concept of HP and to develop a conceptual definition for the research on women with urinary incontinence. The method suggested by Walker and Avant guided this concept analysis. Health promotion is defined as an artistic science whose goal is to enable humans to enhance their health and well‐being through interaction with the environment. Critical attributes of health promotion include enabling and empowering process and activity, multi‐factoral and multi‐dimensional process, health behaviour and healthy lifestyle inseparable with self‐care and concerning disease prevention and health protection. Antecedents include previous decisions and responsibilities on health, beliefs, attitudes, behaviours, and perceptions, change of healthy lifestyle and health challenges. Health‐promoting behaviour, health and well‐being, self‐actualization, equity, change of healthy lifestyle, increased quality of life, self‐awareness, consciousness, balance and stability are the consequences of health promotion. It is recommended that further inquiry in this area should focus on the development of valid measures to accurately evaluate HP in women with urinary incontinence.
