Impacts of health issues in the environment

Population: In this section of your report, you will summarize key elements of the research study and analyze the population impacted by the health issue.  A. Summarize the people, places, and times represented in the research study to provide context for your report. [IHP-330-02]  B. Describe three social and behavioral determinants strongly associated with the public health issue in the research study. Be sure to cite specific examples from the research study to support your description. [IHP-330-01]  C. Describe three known disparities associated with the health of the specific population. Be sure to cite specific examples from the research study to support your description. [IHP-330-01]  D. Explain how the identified social and behavioral determinants relate to the disparities you identified, and explain your reasoning. [IHP-33001]

II. Health Issue: In this section of your final project, you will analyze the health issue in focus in the research study. You will draw conclusions about the health issue through your review of the research study and by conducting outside research on the topic.  A. Describe the risk factors associated with the public health issue. Support your description with evidence from the research study and your independent research. [IHP-330-02]  B. Describe the mode of transmission of the public health issue. Support your description with evidence from the research study and your independent research. [IHP-330-02]  C. Determine the incidence and prevalence of the health issue using the data from the research study to perform the appropriate calculations. [IHP-330-03]  D. Determine the mortality rate of the health issue using the data from the research study to perform the appropriate calculations. [IHP-33003]  E. Interpret the odds ratio to determine the strength of association between the potential sources of exposure and the disease. [IHP-330-03]  F. Using your research and analysis, draw connections between the population and public health issue. Consider where you identified common elements, what you learned about the public health issue by studying the population, and what you learned about the population by studying the public health issue.
