CONCEPTS OF LEVINE THEORY
Adaptation
MAN / PERSON
HEALTH
•State of being "whole" not just the absence of illness or disease.
• Is determined by the ability to function in a reasonably normal manner
•It is culturally determined and influence by ethos and beliefs.
•Health is wholeness and successful adaptation.
•Not merely healing of an afflicted part, it is return to daily activities, selfhood and the
ability to once more pursue by an individual, his or her own interest without
constraints.
•Health can be socially determined (through their interaction with the significant
others). Failure in doing so is a negative scenario.
