    EXPLORE

    Health Dimensions
    In 1948, the WHO has set the parameters that overall good health and wellness are
    interdependent on five (5) health dimensions namely physical, intellectual, emotional, social,
    and spiritual.

    Physical Health refers to the state of the body that includes its composition, function,
    maintenance, and development. It consists of physical activity and fitness, nutrition,
    environment, medical care, and stress reduction.

    Mental/Intellectual Health refers to the cognitive ability of a person to improve the quality
    of his or her life. This also includes the ability to analyze reason, create, and make rational
    decisions.

    Emotional Health refers to the ability of a person to accept his or her own feelings and that of
    others. One’s emotion affects other dimensions of health and even that of decision-making.

    Social Health refers to one’s ability to relate with, build and maintain harmonious relationship
    with his or her family and community. Being socially accepted boosts one’s self-image and well-
    being.

    Moral-Spiritual Health refers to one’s faith, beliefs, and values. Being morally and spiritually
    healthy seeks for the meaning and purpose of life. It is about looking within oneself and deeply
    understanding one’s existence and faith.

    Changes in the Health Dimensions during Puberty


    Puberty is the period of human development in which adolescents experience dramatic
    physical growth and development. It is a period of stress both physically and emotionally. As
    adolescents experience physical transformation, they can also be affected psychologically and
    emotionally.
    Health Dimension Characteristics during Puberty
    Physical Physical changes occur due to hormonal changes. In females, breast
    development is the main sign followed by menarche (first menstrual
    period), the ovaries’ increase of production of estrogen, increase in
    height, broadening of the hips, clear/whitish vaginal secretion, and
    pubic and armpit hair growth. In males, the most prominent changes
    are the enlargement of penis and testes, increase in size of larynx and
    vocal chords that cause the deepening or lowering of the voice,
    appearance of pubic hair, and attainment of height.
    Mental/Intellectual A person challenges the way things are. This is part of their intellectual
    growth.
    Emotional A person explores new relationships and ideas from friends and others.
    Social The adolescent starts to identify herself/himself to a group. Having
    friends mean that they are accepted and they belong. They do things
    to please others and be popular. For them, peer group acceptance and
    being popular are primary concerns.
    Moral/Spiritual Adolescents consistently struggle between what they know they should
    be doing and what they actually do. They struggle because they want
    to be mature yet so often fail.
