Abstract

A national sample of community health education practitioners in the United States was surveyed by mail and asked to select five articles published during the 1970's they would recommend that their colleagues read. The study was conducted in late 1979 after a comparable national survey of university health education faculty by Cernada and Chen ( International Quarterly of Community Health Education, 1:2 and 2:1). The recommended readings were collected and abstracted, and are presented in annotated bibliographic form. A comparison of practitioner and academic selections is in preparation.

1. American Council of Public Health, "Making Health Education Work," American Journal of Public Health, 65 (Supplement), 1975. The information assembled represents the first effort to present an overall picture of how health education principles were applied in the 1960's, to health programs serving low-income and minority groups. It includes suggestions for strengthening educational efforts, and it points up deficiencies which must be overcome if education is to realize its potential value in the health system. The project sought information about planning, organization, operation and management of learning experiences directed toward the improved health behavior of poor people. It also focused on evaluation of the education efforts.
