Which of the following is/are part of the injury control triangle?

• A. Behavioural change
• B. Engineering controls
• C. Medical treatment
• D. Education campaigns

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is that the injury control triangle emphasizes reducing injuries by addressing how people behave, by making the environment safer, and by providing care after injuries. The element that directly represents taking action to reduce risk is changing behavior—getting people to act safer, use protective measures, and follow safety practices. Engineering controls and medical treatment are important parts of injury prevention and response, but they aren’t the behavioral action itself. Education campaigns are a way to promote safer behavior, but they’re a means to an end rather than the behavior change itself.
