Common use of Theoretical Framework Clause in Contracts

Theoretical Framework. This study utilized two theories that worked together to inform the purpose and specific aims. The Health Belief Model provides insight into why healthcare providers take action in preventing, screening, and controlling tobacco use (and potentially marijuana use) in their patients. The Clinician-Patient Communications Framework provides insight on how healthcare providers can disseminate their knowledge and beliefs to their patient to modify behavior. Since this study involves knowledge and attitudes primarily towards tobacco products and how healthcare providers translate this into their practice, both theories are needed.
