According to Ludwig, Bucholz, and Clarke (2005), an example of a population-based public health intervention defined under social marketing is a grateful head theme used to increase helmet use on a college campus. This example is defined under the individual/family level of practice. The other choices are not listed as examples of public health intervention programs.
