Health promotion and disease prevention programs focus on keeping people healthy. Health
promotion programs aim to engage and empower individuals and communities to choose healthy behaviours
and make changes that reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases and other morbidities. Defined by the
World Health Organization, health promotion is: “The process of enabling people to increase control over,
and to improve, their health. It moves beyond a focus on individual behaviour towards a wide range of social
and environmental interventions.”
Disease prevention differs from health promotion because it focuses on specific efforts aimed at
reducing the development and severity of chronic diseases and other morbidities. Wellness is related to health
promotion and disease prevention. Wellness is described as the attitudes and active decisions made by an
individual that contribute to positive health behaviours and outcomes. Health promotion and disease
prevention programs often address social determinants of health, which influence modifiable risk behaviours.
Social determinants of health are the economic, social, cultural, and political conditions in which people are
born, grow, and live that affect health status. Modifiable risk behaviours include, for example, tobacco use,
poor eating habits, and lack of physical activity, which contribute to the development of chronic disease.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50.
In the study of 15 countries, including the US, UK, Japan, India, Brazil, Argentina, Belgium, Finland,
France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden, it was discovered that 41 percent of
"highly mobile" employees (those who more often worked from home) considered themselves highly
stressed as well, compared to only 25 percent of those who worked only on-site.
This news may come as a shock to many people who may consider a work-from-home lifestyle to be
one that's less stressful and marked with more personal freedom. Part of this stress experienced by those
highly mobile workers may be due to the fact that those who work from home face a host of challenges that
are unique to this particular setup. It is true that most people love the flexibility that comes with working
from home: getting up and going to sleep at times that are dictated more by one's personal body clock and
tastes can be wonderfully liberating. It can also get out of hand and feel stressful, however, to be free from
the structure that once felt confining.
Likewise with the freedom from dealing with obnoxious co-workers. While most people may enjoy
having the freedom to choose who they interact with each day and love to avoid listening to office gossip,
complaints, and politics, they may be surprised by the isolation they feel when their interactions aren't
automatic and they need to put in an effort to see anyone at all.
Many of these factors may balance each other out stress-wise, but the recent UN study suggests that
the increased reliance on mobile devices may push the work-from-home crowd over the edge into higher-
stress territory. These experiences may come as a surprise to someone who is new to working at home, but
they are commonly experienced. They are also common sources of stress. There must be more on these and
other widespread sources of stress for those who live where they work, have zero commute time, and may not
realize that they are not alone in the surprising sources of stress they face.
