Abstract:
The purpose of this article was to explore how applications of principles of social structure and social interaction may enhance health program planning. Theoretical aspects of social structure and social interaction and their relationships to planning were discussed. Potential problems in health planning as a result of not considering social system structure and interaction within a system were discussed. It was concluded that the health educator could benefit by applying principles of social structure and social interaction in health planning. Practical applications to the health planning process were postulated.
