    Biopsychosocial Model of Health and Fitness

    Uploaded by

    Andy Jones
    The Biopsychosocial Model of Health views a patient's health as being determined by interacting biological, psychological, and social factors rather than just their biology. It was developed in 1977 by Drs. George Engel and John Romano to represent how a person's genetics, behaviors, socioeconomic background, and environment all contribute collectively to their overall health status and well-being.

    The Biopsychosocial Model of Health represents

    how the different interacting parts (shown below)


    combine to make up a person’s health in its fullest
    context, rather than just by its biological aspect. It
    views the patient as a real person with a complex
    life. It was devised by Drs. George Engel & John
    Romano in 1977 and has remained as foundation-
    al thinking about health ever since.

    Biological:
    Factors in this category include, ge-
    netics, age, sex, race and physiologi-
    cal status (e.g. pregnancy). It could be
    argued some are less easy to control. Psychological:
    Our thoughts, beliefs and perceptions about ourselves and
    our environment can shape the amount we think we have
    control in our life. This will lead to behaviours that either
    support or cause harm to our health.
    At it’s worst we may suffer anxiety and depression.

    Social Influences:
    These might be socioeconomic back- Behaviour change is a way to positively impact a person’s
    ground and culture, deprivation, un- current and future health.
    employment, employment of manual
    or sedentary nature, peer group pres-
    sure, lower educational attainment,
    lack of family or peer support, or neg-
    ative criticism, isolation, and the
    country’s health care support.

    Health is a state of complete physical, mental


    and social well-being and not merely the absence
    of disease or infirmity. (WHO)
