Abstract

Health behavior models are widely used in prevention research with children and adolescents; yet, many of these models were developed based on adult experiences and fail to consider the development of health constructs. The concept of health capacity development is a theoretical model of how health capacities, the health-related developmental sociocultural resources individuals use to regulate their coactions with their environments to sustain health, develop. Health capacities are formed through person-environment transactions and thus, are informed by, and help individuals manage, the opportunities and constraints situated in their environments. The extent to which health capacities support long-term adaptive health development varies; yet, health capacities may be leveraged for adaptative functioning. Grounded in the Life Course Health Development (LCHD) framework and the principles of Relational Developmental Systems (RDS) metatheory, the development of three health capacities, their role in managing person-environment coactions, and their potential for facilitating displays of resilient functioning in inequitable contexts are described. Implications of the model, its limitations, and avenues for future research are discussed.

在不公平情况下管理卫生:作为生命过程卫生发展组成部分的卫生能力。

健康行为模型广泛应用于儿童和青少年的预防研究;然而，许多这些模型都是基于成人的经验而发展起来的，没有考虑到健康结构的发展。健康能力发展的概念是一个理论模型，说明健康能力，即与健康有关的发展社会文化资源，个人如何利用这些资源来调节他们与环境的互动，以维持健康和发展。保健能力是通过人与环境的交往形成的，因此，它了解并帮助个人管理其环境中的机会和制约因素。卫生能力支持长期适应性卫生发展的程度各不相同;然而，可以利用卫生能力来实现适应性功能。在生命历程健康发展(LCHD)框架和关系发展系统(RDS)元理论的基础上，描述了三种健康能力的发展，它们在管理人与环境相互作用中的作用，以及它们在不平等背景下促进弹性功能展示的潜力。讨论了该模型的意义、局限性和未来研究的途径。

期刊介绍： The mission of New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development is to provide scientific and scholarly presentations on cutting edge issues and concepts in the field of child and adolescent development. Each issue focuses on a specific new direction or research topic, and is peer reviewed by experts on that topic. Any topic in the domain of child and adolescent development can be the focus of an issue. Topics can include social, cognitive, educational, emotional, biological, neuroscience, health, demographic, economical, and socio-cultural issues that bear on children and youth, as well as issues in research methodology and other domains. Topics that bridge across areas are encouraged, as well as those that are international in focus or deal with under-represented groups. The readership for the journal is primarily students, researchers, scholars, and social servants from fields such as psychology, sociology, education, social work, anthropology, neuroscience, and health. We welcome scholars with diverse methodological and epistemological orientations.
