the five assumptions of the biomedical model: 1. Science is reality. The only knowledge that is valuable is scientific. 2. the patient is not an individual, but their body is a machine that requires repairing. 3. Restoring health (homeostatis, free from illness) requires ONLY medical technology 4. All diseases are caused by a specific agent (virus, bacteria, etc.) all phenomena can be reduced to molecular Biology. What is not reductable cannot be real. 5. Diseases are universal, and are resulting from dysfunction.

What is the western health model biomedical model?
The Biomedical Model. The biomedical model of medicine was developed in the 19th century as a response to the medical knowledge of that time. The knowledge being that man was a part of nature and therefore could be studied in the same way as nature, at a cellular level. The biomedical model was highly successful in identifying main causes of illness and death at that time, these were accidents and infections. The biomedical model suggests that man only got il from things which invaded the body or from accidental damage. Also the biomedical model suggests that man is either healthy or ill - there is no 'in between.' However, as the century progressed individuals no longer died from infections, society changed with industrialisation, living conditions improved, nutrition improved and new illnesses such as Coronary Heart Disease and cancer became the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. The biomedical model no longer was as effective due to the fact that other factors, social and psychological, played a part in illness. The biomedical model still stands today in identifying illnesses and diseases but not what causes them and what causes death.

How does the biomedical model compare to the biophysocial model?
The biomedical model causes on the physical aspects of diagnosing a disease. Whereas biophysocial model is a diagnosis based on a patients emotions, or sociology. The factors in question both play a major role in determining the cause of an illness. At times separately or in unison.
What is the main features of the biomedical model?
The biomedical model focuses on diagnosing and treating diseases by viewing them as physical abnormalities in the body. It emphasizes biological factors as the primary cause of illness and relies heavily on medical interventions such as medications and surgery to address health issues. It often overlooks the impact of social, psychological, and environmental factors on health.

Features of biomedical model?
Some features of the biomedical model of health are specialist medical services are valued highly, scientific methodology is highly valued in research, and health services are geared towards the treating of the sick. Also there is the absence of disease and that health is based on the understanding of how diseases arise.
The differences between the biomedical model and the sociomedical model?
biomedical focus only on the medical need of the person like treating only the illness. socio medical looks at both the medical need and the environment and social condition that the person is in ie poor house increase chance of illness
What are the critics of the biomedical model of psychology?
Overall, there are several criticisms of the biomedical model that you may have considered: * Reductionism: The model attempts to reduce the explanations of health and illness to the smallest possible factors. But humans and ill-health are not this simple. There may be lots of different causes from social to psychological to genetic. * Single-factor causes: The biomedical model looks for the cause, rather than a range of contributory factors. * Mind-body distinction: The mind and body are considered separately- they do not affect one another. But, as we will see, this is not the case. * Illness not health: The focus of the model is on illness, rather than health.

What are the assumptions of the neoclassical model?
The neoclassical model assumes that individuals are rational, markets are perfectly competitive, resources are scarce, technology is constant, and individuals act to maximize their utility or profit. These assumptions form the foundation of neoclassical economic theory.
