The central strategy practiced within health psychology is the bio-psycho-social design. The British Health Society explains that health and disease are the effects of a blending of biological, psychological and social factors. Biological determinants consist of genetic conditions and inherited personality traits. Psychological factors are anxiety levels, personality features and lifestyle. Social determinants consist of cultural views, family relationships and support systems. - See more at: http://healthpsychology.org/what-is-health-psychology/#sthash.WTdWhR6T.dpuf
