Which strategy leverages social networks for behavior change?

• A. Group Sessions
• B. All of the Above
• C. Peer Mentors
• D. Online Communities

Answer: (B)

Leveraging social networks for behavior change means using relationships and group dynamics to support and reinforce change. Group sessions create social support, accountability, and shared problem-solving among participants. Peer mentors provide relatable role models and ongoing social influence, helping individuals see doable paths to change and stay motivated. Online communities extend these social connections beyond in-person meetings, offering ongoing peer feedback, norm setting, and encouragement that can happen at any time and place. Each approach taps into a different way people are influenced by others—support and accountability, modeling, and norms—so using all of them broadens reach and reinforcement. That’s why “All of the above” is the best answer: it acknowledges multiple social-network pathways to support behavior change.
