Answer:

o.o someone else

Step-by-step explanation:

One way someone can get an intentional injury is if they get into a fight with someone. An individual behavior that may have caused this injury is if you instigated the other person to fight you. A social norm would be peer pressure, someone might say “yeah man go on, you can take him” which makes you feel pressured to fight.

One way someone can get unintentionally injured is if they get hit by a car (this can be intentional or unintentional but I’ll give you the unintentional version). An individual behavior that may have caused this is that you and/or the driver of the car were not paying attention. A social norm would be texting while driving. This is one of the main causes for accidents.
