Personal-health courses like the one built around Your Health Today: Choices in a Changing Society, 7th Edition by Michael Teague ask you to do something deceptively hard: connect everyday choices — what you eat, how you move, how you manage stress, what you put in your body — to real physiology, behavior-change science, and the social forces that shape health. Exams reward students who can reason across nutrition, mental health, chronic and infectious disease, sexuality, and consumer/environmental health at once, not just memorize definitions. This test bank is built to match that course so your practice mirrors what you’ll actually be tested on.
Why this test bank helps
Every question comes with a written rationale, so you are not just checking a letter — you are learning why a wellness dimension, risk factor, or behavior-change stage is correct and why the tempting distractors are wrong. That rationale-first approach turns each item into a mini-lesson, which is how you build the applied understanding personal-health exams demand.
What’s inside
- Questions organized to follow the flow of the textbook — from self-responsibility and behavior change through nutrition, fitness, mental and emotional health, relationships, disease, and environmental/consumer health.
- Exam-style formats used in general-education health courses: multiple-choice, true/false, matching, and short scenario items that ask you to apply concepts to real-life choices.
- A clear rationale for every question, explaining the reasoning rather than just naming the answer.
- Coverage of key models and frameworks (such as the dimensions of wellness and stages of behavior change) that instructors love to test.
- Instant PDF download right after checkout — searchable, printable, and yours to keep.

Who it’s for
This is aimed at undergraduate and general-education students taking a personal, community, or public-health course that uses Teague’s Your Health Today. It is equally useful for anyone in health-education, kinesiology, or wellness programs who wants realistic self-assessment before midterms, finals, or quizzes tied to this specific title and edition.
How to use it (the right way)
Use it as a study and self-assessment tool, not a shortcut. Read the chapter first, attempt a block of questions closed-book, and only afterward read the rationales — especially for items you missed. Re-test a few days later to lock in what you got wrong. An academic-integrity note: this is a personal study aid. Do not use it during a graded exam or submit its contents as your own work, and always follow your instructor’s and institution’s policies. Used honestly, it helps you understand the material — it cannot guarantee any grade.
Sample question
(Shows the format — your download contains the full set.)
Q. A student says, “I know I should exercise, and I’m planning to start within the next month.” According to the transtheoretical (stages of change) model, this student is in which stage?
- A. Precontemplation
- B. Contemplation
- C. Preparation
- D. Maintenance
Answer: C. Stating a specific intention to act within the next month is the hallmark of the preparation stage. Precontemplation (A) means no intention to change soon; contemplation (B) is thinking about change but without a near-term commitment; maintenance (D) applies only after the new behavior has been sustained over time. The near-future intent is what distinguishes preparation from the others.
