- The study and use of communication strategies to inform and influence individual decisions that enhance health. Health communication includes verbal and written strategies to influence and empower individuals, populations, and communities to make healthier choices.

program/intervention, how great the need is, and what can be done
to best meet the need. Involves audience research and informs
audience segmentation and marketing mix (4 P’s) strategies.
Process Evaluation:
Measures effort and the direct outputs of programs/interventions –
what and how much was accomplished (i.e., exposure, reach,
knowledge, attitudes, etc.).
Examines the process of implementing the communication
program/intervention and determines whether it is operating as
planned. It can be done continuously or as a one-time assessment.
Results are used to improve the program/intervention.

norms, and
behavior change, etc. Also measures policy changes.

the communication program/intervention. These impacts are the net
effects,
typically on the entire school, community, organization, society,
