Abstract
77i£s article describes the background to the current status of health promotion indicator research and defines the major issues and problems involved, ft then discusses both of these areas in detail. Problems in health promotion indicators fall under three major headings: methodologies, concepts and theories, and purpose and applications. Two other kinds of problems are discovered under these headings. Problems of methodology include difficulties in measurement and data analysis. The issues in concepts and theories of indicators include defining the field and defining the theory, while issues in purposes and applications involve the use of indicators in the fields of research and policy. The authors conclude that the emerging paradigm of health promotion has a wider perspective than the paradigm of disease prevention, medical care and medical treatment.
期刊介绍：
Health Promotion International contains refereed original articles, reviews, and debate articles on major themes and innovations in the health promotion field. In line with the remits of the series of global conferences on health promotion the journal expressly invites contributions from sectors beyond health. These may include education, employment, government, the media, industry, environmental agencies, and community networks. As the thought journal of the international health promotion movement we seek in particular theoretical, methodological and activist advances to the field. Thus, the journal provides a unique focal point for articles of high quality that describe not only theories and concepts, research projects and policy formulation, but also planned and spontaneous activities, organizational change, as well as social and environmental development.
