Which is an abstract concept of health?

• A. Health
• B. A Table
• C. A Chair
• D. A Car

Answer: (A)

Understanding abstract ideas versus tangible objects is what this item asks you to do. Health as a concept describes a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease. It’s multidimensional and normative, meaning it refers to how people experience and function in life rather than a specific physical thing you can touch. That makes it abstract: you can’t hold or point to “health” as a concrete object. In health promotion, you’re talking about improving this condition and overall well-being, not creating a physical item. A table, a chair, or a car are concrete objects with physical form you can see and touch, which is why they don’t represent an abstract concept like health.
