“…Removing intrinsic and extrinsic barriers and increasing personal motivation are the largest obstacles in health promotion. 35 According to Pender's model of health promotion, intrinsic factors that influence whether one engages in healthpromoting activities include personal characteristics and past experiences, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and selfefficacy; extrinsic factors include situational and interpersonal influences such as norms, social support, and role modeling. 11 Intrinsic characteristics that pose potential barriers to nurses' participation in health promotion activities include sex and age.…”

Nurses are knowledgeable regarding the importance of health-promoting activities such as healthy eating, physical activity, stress management, sleep hygiene, and maintaining healthy relationships. However, this knowledge may not translate into nurses’ own self-care. Nurses may not follow recommended guidelines for physical activity and proper nutrition. Long hours, work overload, and shift work associated with nursing practice can be stressful and contribute to job dissatisfaction, burnout, and health consequences such as obesity and sleep disturbances. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of research examining nurses’ participation in health-promoting behaviors, including intrinsic and extrinsic factors that may influence nurses’ participation in these activities. This article also provides recommendations for perioperative nurse leaders regarding strategies to incorporate into the nursing workplace to improve the health of the staff nurses by increasing health-promoting behaviors.

“… Extrinsic motivation comes from outside the individual and refers to the performance of an activity to achieve a reward, such as money or other desired outcome or avoidance of a threat or punishment. Common extrinsic motivators also include coercion . Intrinsic motivation refers to motivation that is driven by an interest or enjoyment in the task itself and exists within the individual rather than relying on any external pressure ; thus, in terms of diabetes, the intrinsic motivation may be optimum health and well‐being for personal satisfaction. …”

Kaleidoscope model of diabetes care: time for a rethink?

et al. 2014

National Audit Data highlight persistent sub-optimum control among increasing numbers of people living with diabetes, with severe consequences for the individual and the NHS. The aim of the present review was to introduce a new cohesive, holistic model of care, tailored to individual needs to support optimum diabetes outcomes. This model of diabetes is necessary in order to understand the driving forces behind behaviour and their impact on diabetes management. Feelings (an emotional state or reaction) and beliefs (an acceptance that something is true or real) are fundamental behavioural drivers and influence diabetes self-management choices. Individually, these explain some of the complexities of behaviour and, collectively, they impact on personal motivation (rationale/desire to act) to achieve a specific outcome. Inevitably, they independently affect diabetes self-management and the environment in which individuals live. A model of care that proposes the encompassing of environment, intrinsic thought and therapy regimens to provide tailored, personalized healthcare should support enhanced diabetes self-management and outcomes from diagnosis. The Kaleidoscope model of care could be deliverable in routine care, incorporating each of the influences on diabetes self-management, and should benefit both individuals with diabetes and healthcare professionals.

“…important intrapersonal variable relative to engagement in health promoting behaviors (Seifert, Chapman, Hart, & Perez, 2012). Importantly, engaging in health promoting behaviors (e.g., healthy eating and physical activity) have been found to be significant predictors of participation in cancer screening (Meissner et al, 2009).…”

Predictors of Cancer Screening Among Culturally Diverse Men

et al. 2016

Men have higher rates of all cancers and are more likely to die from cancer than women; however, men are less likely to utilize disease prevention services. African American/Black men and Hispanic men have lower cancer survival rates and are less likely to utilize health care services than non-Hispanic White men. The present study examined demographic variables (age, household income, education, marital status, race/ethnicity, health insurance status), motivators to engage in healthy eating, and motivators to engage in physical activity as predictors of culturally diverse, medically underserved men's likelihood of getting a cancer screening (a) at the present time, (b) if no cancer symptoms are present, and (c) if a doctor discovers some cancer symptoms. Analyses were conducted using data from 243 men (47.3% non-Hispanic Black, 29.5% Hispanic, 16.5% non-Hispanic White, and 6.8% "other") recruited at the Men's Health Forum in Tampa, Florida. Age, having a medical or health condition that benefits from eating healthy, and having a commitment to physical activity were significant positive predictors of the likelihood of receiving a cancer screening. Motivation to engage in physical activity because of a personal priority was a significant negative predictor of the likelihood of getting a cancer screening. The findings from this study suggest that interventions to increase cancer screenings among culturally diverse, medically underserved men should be informed at least in part by an assessment of participating men's motivators for engaging in health promoting lifestyle behaviors such as physical activity and healthy eating.
