    The 5 Whys Technique is used to determine the root cause of problems. It involves stating an initial problem, then asking "why" that problem occurred up to 5 times to uncover underlying causes, until a clear resolution is found. Once the root cause is determined through this iterative questioning process, intervention development can begin to address the problem.

    5. Youve completed the 5 Whys Technique. You can now move on to
    intervention development.
