CHAPTER 8
Homo ludens from a primal health research perspective
Until now, we have presented primal health research as a branch of epidemiology. This was simplistic – on purpose. Epidemiology is the science that studies risk factors for diseases. The time has come to underline that the concept of ‘primal health’, as it was introduced in 1986, does not include the word ‘disease’.1 The keyword is ‘health’. This means that the ultimate objective is to study factors influencing health in general, even if, as a preliminary step, it is easier to look at risk factors for specific diseases. There is now a need to look wider and to diversify the studies included in the Primal Health Research Database.2 We anticipate a promising avenue for research, looking in particular at factors that can influence the expression of basic behaviours. Among the basic behavioural patterns that may be studied from a primal health research perspective, I suggest we give the first place to ‘play’.
