In using Hodges' model in clinical, educational and many other contexts (informatics a prime example) I have associated 4P's, one with each care, or knowledge domain of the model:

SCIENCES - process
INTRA- INTERPERSONAL - purpose
SOCIOLOGY - practice
POLITICAL - policy

From the Couch to the Courtroom BBC Radio 4: 17 April 2017
Helena Kennedy QC asks if our legal system is becoming too influenced by the culture of psychotherapy.

The potential of Hodges' model as a generic conceptual framework has always been demonstrable through the distinction between the individual and the State. In this Radio 4 programme it is well worth also considering the diametric (potential) opposition of the person and their mental health (and therefore their physical state) as in applying the law in all aspects of healthcare and human welfare.

There are two references in the bibliography (sidebar) on the role of Hodges' model in forensic contexts.
