Abstract

Two presentations using PowerPoint slides that include the outline, and basic information from the lectures are detailed. One lecture, “From Boozing Student to Clean Living Movements” focused on theories of drinking behaviors as part of cycles of public health reforms. The “From Boozing Student to Chaos Theory, used much of the same material with the addition of chaos theory. In these presentations, Engs’ sums up her career as a researcher and presents the theoretical model she developed concerning determinants of behavior, in other words what causes people to behave in certain way. This has included both quantitative and qualitative historical research. The model was updated in 2012 to include new research findings.
