This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Health Promotion International rather than just read about it. In short: Health Promotion International is a peer-reviewed public health journal covering health promotion which publishes six issues a year through a continuous model of publication. It was established in 1986 at the John Snow Pub on Broadwick Street in London, England.

Key takeaways

Health Promotion International belongs to astronomy; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Health Promotion International to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Health Promotion International from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Health Promotion International is a peer-reviewed public health journal covering health promotion which publishes six issues a year through a continuous model of publication. It was established in 1986 at the John Snow Pub on Broadwick Street in London, England. The journal's founder was Ilona Kickbusch, who is now the chair emerita of its editorial board. Originally named Health Promotion, the journal obtained its current name in 1990. It is published by Oxford University Press. The current Editor-in-Chief for the Journal is Professor Samantha Thomas (January 2023 - ). Professor Thomas is Professor of Public Health at Deakin University and is known for her research in the commercial and political determinants of health. The Chair of the Boards is Emeritus Professor Mike Daube AO. In their first editorial for Health Promotion International, Thomas and Daube outlined their vision for the journal: “It is important to encourage critical thinking, engage in debate and difficult conversations, and hear about the challenges that face us. But we should also hear about the successes that those engaged in health promotion have achieved and continue to achieve, despite all the challenges they face. There is much to learn from these, not least that the benefits of preventive action often take time to materialise, and that even when there are good outcomes, there is never room for complacency.” The Journal showed improvements in Impact Metrics for 2024, including an increased 2024 impact factor of 2.4, and an increased Scopus Citescore of 5.0. It is a Q1 ranked journal for Health (Social Science). In 2024 the Journal had a total full text readership of 1,199,390. The Journal has recently published special issues on the Commercial Determinants of Health, and the Digital Determinants of Health. The Journal has also aimed to support and provide opportunities for Early Career Researchers through the Mike Daube Early Career Advocacy Series, and through appointments to Associate Editor team and Boards. In 2023, Health Promotion International decided to preclude research or commentary directly or indirectly funded by the tobacco, alcohol, commercial gambling, ultra-processed food, fossil fuel and arms industries, in an “effort to disrupt harmful industry influence over science”. In 2025, Oxford University Press announced that Health Promotion International will be a fully open access journal beginning with the 2026 volume on January 1, 2026.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Health Promotion International

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Health Promotion International claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Health Promotion International before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Health Promotion International ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Health Promotion International

In research: Health Promotion International appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Health Promotion International in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Health Promotion International is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Academic journals established in 1986, Bimonthly journals, English-language journals, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Health Promotion International outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
