I'm pretty confident on this one. Employee support programs are all about addressing the personal and financial pressures that can lead to fraud, so the answer has to be "pressure."

Okay, I've got a strategy for this. I'm going to think through each option and how it relates to the Fraud Triangle. "Opportunity" doesn't seem quite right, since the question is about prevention. "Lack of integrity" also doesn't seem like the focus here. I'm leaning towards "pressure" as the best answer.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is it trying to get at the "rationalization" part of the triangle? Maybe the idea is that employee support programs could help people see alternatives to committing fraud.
