Appeared in: AIIMS Raipur NO - 2019 (Shift-2)
Explanation
- The items listed (physical activity, nutrition, family planning, stress reduction, safety) are all personal choices and behaviors.
- The term 'Lifestyle factors' is a broad category in public health that encompasses these exact types of individual habits.
- These factors are considered modifiable risk factors, meaning an individual has the power to change them to improve their health outcomes.
- This category best fits the entire list, whereas other options are too narrow or describe different concepts.
Why Other Options Were Wrong
- Option B: Physical factors typically refer to the body's biological and genetic makeup or direct environmental influences (like pollution), not behavioral choices like diet or exercise.
- Option C: This is too specific. While 'reduced stress' is a mental factor, this term does not cover physical activity, nutrition, or family planning.
- Option D: Social factors relate to societal conditions like income, education level, and social support networks. While 'absence of violence' has a social dimension, the other items are primarily personal behaviors.

Clinical Relevance
- Nursing practice connection: This is primarily an exam-oriented knowledge point with limited direct bedside application, so retain Determinants of Health as background academic context rather than a clinical decision trigger.
- Nurses play a critical role in patient education regarding lifestyle modifications. Understanding this concept is fundamental to health promotion and disease prevention.
- Assessing a patient's lifestyle factors is a key part of a holistic nursing assessment, helping to identify risks and areas for intervention.
- What if? If a patient presents with newly diagnosed hypertension, a nurse's first step after stabilizing the patient is often to assess and provide education on lifestyle factors like diet (low sodium), exercise, and stress management, as these are primary non-pharmacological interventions.
How to Approach the Question
- Read the list of items provided in the question: physical activity, nutrition, family planning, stress reduction, and absence of violence.
- Analyze the common theme connecting all these items. Notice that they are all related to personal choices, habits, and behaviors.
- Evaluate the given options to see which term best serves as an umbrella category for all the listed items.
- Option A, 'Lifestyle factors,' directly refers to the way people live, including their behaviors and habits.
- Options B, C, and D ('Physical,' 'Mental,' 'Social' factors) are too specific and only describe parts of the list, not the entire collection.
- Conclude that 'Lifestyle factors' is the most accurate and comprehensive classification for the items listed.
