I'd say proactive attempts to make things better, preventive seeks to stop them from getting worse.\n\nProactive intervention seeks to CAUSE things to happen.\n\nPreventive intervention seeks to STOP things from happening.

Yes, as lookingdabest mentions, I've heard of ProActive as being helpful, too.  I, however, have had no first hand experience with it.  Other than doctor prescribed Tetracycling, which has been helpful for me, I've been looking very seriously into something called "Zeno".  I've attached the link.  This device supposedly treats acne one pimple at a time, but makes them almost disappear in 24 hours.  Too good to be true?  I'm researching this over and over.

Prevention is better than cure. It can happen anywhere anytime again, so what we should do is helping poor countries to develop. If they have no reason to strike, they are less likely to do it.

Not really... proactive is more effective and it works as long as you use it correctly and use it everyday until you finish the bottles. It comes with a full treatment package and there's only 3 steps to clearing your face.

Curative health care heals already existing illnesses or wounds (e.i. antibiotics, chemotherapy) while preventative prevents diseases and wounds from happening in the first place (e.i. vaccines, calcium tablets).

Facilitating means actively participating to make something happen, but not being the primary person responsible.\n\nEnabling means doing something to allow another person to make something happen, while not doing anything directly to make it happen.\n\nFor example, you can facilitate plowing a field by prepping the tractor, filling it with fuel and gapping the spark plugs, then taking it out of the barn and hitching up the disker for the farmer to disk the field. \n\nYou can enable the horse to get out of the barn by leaving the door open.

Pro means "Advantages"\nCon means "Disadvantages".\nI have read these words in an article.

This is an easy one!\n\nLong lasting- acts on the person over an extended period of time.\n\nExtended release- acts on the person over a shorter period of time, but may take a short period of time for it to have an effect.\n\nControlled release- acts on the person when the person requires the effects of the drug, such a drug is hard to manufacture.\n\nVOTE FOR BIG LINH HE NEEDS POINTS :P

Both have a tremendous effect on the other.  What are you asking.  Clarify and I will come back and respond.

The obvious difference is one compels and the dictates behavior.  When one is guided towards making the right, choice, for instance, the ultimate decision lies with the individual.  When one is regulated to make a particular choice, consequences exist to punish the individual if they happen to make the "wrong" choice.\n\nExample:  Regulation may require individuals to drive no faster than the posted speed limit.  In rainy or snowy conditions, however, most drivers have been instructed (trained, guided) to drive at far slower speeds.

Yes, in all areas. An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. I don't remember who originally said that but it has a lot of truth in it. Educating someone on Alcohol, drugs, std, or whatever it may be will in the long run allow someone to make better decisions, and fewer mistakes. \n\nInterventions often fail because those being intervened upon are usually not ready to stop doing what they have done already to warrant it. It has to be something they want to do to be able to stop.

There is no real distinction between a psychological disorder and a physical disorder.  The psychology is a result of physical processes.  This does not mean that consultation, counseling, etc is not effective, it just means that these things can change the biochemistry of the brain.  Depression, for example, can be effectively treated by exercise, counseling, or drugs-all of them impacting on the same biochemical pathways.  Also, just because a behaviour is the result of biochemical processes does not mean that people are not responsible for what they do-Reward and punishment clearly does work to change behaviour, and thus an individual has the ability to change his or her behaviour, and thus the biochemistry of his or her brain.  If behaviour requires pharmacological treatment or is affecting the person's ability to live a satisfying, producting life, then it may become a medical condition.

Proactive is for treatment of acne, not for eczema. I find it very odd that the doctor suggested proactive.. you may need to find another dermatologist for more consultation.

Well goal setting is self explanatory, prescriptive means things you have to do. so id say it refers to a regime which has definitive targets yet does not require people to obey certain elements required to reach said targets.

PROTECT is to keep secure and PREVENT is to stop insecurity.\nexample: you can protect yourself from deseases by taking tablets and also prevent it by eating healthy food.

Proactive means doing something without being told, not waiting. \n\nProactive Darwinism would therefore mean helping nature along a little. An example might be firing someone who was a little incompetent before they were able to do something really bad. Or perhaps removing a sickly sheep from breeding stock.
