Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Intervening opportunities refer to the presence of alternative options or possibilities (origins and destinations) for achieving a particular goal or fulfilling a certain need. For example, a person may choose to move to a city that offers better job opportunities, but they may find another city with similar opportunities along the way, which may tempt them to settle there instead.
