a. Implementing the wheel model of epidemiology
b. Engaging in extensive truth seeking like a detective in the community
c. Traveling throughout the community to absorb an overall impression of it
d. Facilitating sharing of the community’s history by community leaders
ESSAYBID ANSWER
ANS: C
Shoe leather epidemiology refers to establishing hypotheses about the community’s health, strengths, and possible problems through the down-to-earth approach of traveling through the area, and observing and interacting with community members. Implementing the wheel model, engaging in truth seeking, and facilitating sharing of the community’s history do not demonstrate the process of traveling through the community to absorb its overall impression.
