How Do Pathways of Risk Work?
Pathways of risk often involve multiple steps and intermediary factors. For example, consider the pathway leading from
smoking
to lung cancer:
Initial exposure to tobacco smoke.
Biological changes in lung tissue.
Development of precancerous lesions.
Progression to lung cancer.
This pathway illustrates how a behavioral risk factor (smoking) leads to a biological outcome (lung cancer) through a series of intermediary steps.
