paper discusses the Health Believe Model, developed by Hochbaum, Kegels and Rosenstock, which is a systematic
method to explain and predict preventive health behavior, focusing on the relationship of health behaviors, practices and the utilization of health services and general health motivation for distinguishing illness and sick-role behavior from health behavior. The author constructed a
structured interview protocol in which the
interviewee was asked several questions about her health and provided with set responses from which to choose. The paper reported that the interviewee Ms. C indicated that her two strongest barriers were "
inconvenience" and "
expense". Questionnaire included. Table of Contents Introduction The Health Belief Model Structured
