When creating a BDI logic model, it is important to first specify:

determinants of behavior.
behaviors you want to change.
the health goal.
intervention activities.

Doug Kirby, Ph.D., shared that BDI logic models have been used to create a variety of programs throughout the world focusing on:

youth development, family well-being, and improved education.
improved sanitation, political involvement, and HIV prevention.
better nutrition, livestock safety, and pregnancy prevention.
delaying the onset of sexual intercourse and substance abuse prevention.

If you are developing a logic model for a training program to change the behaviors of teachers so that they, in turn, will change the behavior of youth, you should:

add an additional column focusing on teacher behaviors to your logic model.
remove the teen behavior column from your logic model.
use the advanced logic model template that has six columns.
consider using a logic model other than the BDI Logic Model that will better serve your needs.

Which of the following is NOT a way to identify the most important determinants?

Review the major studies that have measured multiple determinants and conducted the appropriate statistical analysis (e.g., multiple regression).
Conduct focus groups with your target population.
Interview experts in your community.
Interview one key opinion leader from your target group.

In his paper "Emerging Answers," Dr. Kirby identified literally hundreds of:

potential applications for the BDI Logic Model.
behaviors that prevous research has found to be related to unintended pregnancy and STD/HIV transmission.
determinants that previous research has found to be related to sexual behaviors that lead to pregnancy or STDs/HIV.
intervention components that previous research has found to impact the most common behavioral determinants to unintended pregnancy and STD/HIV prevention.
