Explanation:

The Socio Ecological model is a framework used for understanding the effects of personal and environmental factors that can affect patterns and behaviors in an individual.

According to this model, there are different levels that influence the individual.

1. Individual: It refers to the individual characteristics that influence change or behaviors. (skills, knowledge, religion, economic status, age)
2. Interpersonal: Refers to the social networks and social support systems that influence individual behaviours (family, peers, friends). These systems give support and role definition.
3. Community: Refers to the relationships among institutions with boundaries (bussinesses, associations, transportation).
4. Organizational: Refers to more established organizations with rules and regulations that define how services should be provided.
