This course, Health Psychology and Behavioral Medicine: The Biopsychosocial Approach, explores the dynamic relationship between behavior, mental processes, and physical health. By examining the foundational biopsychosocial model, learners will investigate how biological factors, psychological states, and social determinants—such as socioeconomic conditions and cultural contexts—collectively influence health outcomes and contribute to health disparities. This interdisciplinary framework provides the necessary context for understanding the complexities of health promotion, disease prevention, and quality-of-life improvement.</p>
