David- as David he does not consider that he has depression (health belief) as per the Bio (physiological pathology) and it can be also assumed no time soon he is willing to change his health behaviour due to the basic perceptions of health. Furthermore, it is the model that can be linked to the stress appraisals and David’s behavioural responses for performing the stress he is having. This particular belief can be directly linked with the psychological influences on health in terms of the bio psychological model of health and illness (Rahayu et al., 2018).

Susan- as Susan is continuous working with arthritis that is also causing back pain it may result into not leading a healthy life because of the acute pain, physical limitations as well as mental health problems (Benning, 2015).
