Emotionally, it can lead to feelings of fear, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    This statement suggests that physical harm is not always the individual's fault. It implies that there can be situations where physical harm is caused by external factors or other individuals, rather than being solely the responsibility of the person who experiences it. Therefore, the correct answer is False, as it acknowledges that physical harm can occur due to various reasons beyond an individual's control.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Emotional harm is just as important as physical harm because it can have long-lasting effects on a person's mental and emotional well-being. While physical harm may be visible and easier to recognize, emotional harm can cause significant psychological distress, leading to issues such as depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. It is crucial to acknowledge and address emotional harm in order to support individuals in their overall healing and recovery process.

    Emotional and mental harm can significantly affect the way a person acts. When someone experiences emotional or mental harm, it can impact their behavior, mood, and overall well-being. It may cause them to withdraw socially, become irritable, or exhibit other changes in their actions. Therefore, the statement that emotional and mental harm do not affect the way a person acts is false.

Therefore, it is incorrect to claim that mental harm is less painful than physical harm.

    • Possible risk

    • No risk

    You can always tell if a person’s thinking is harmed.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    This statement is incorrect because it is not always possible to tell if a person's thinking is harmed. Mental health conditions and cognitive impairments may not always be visible or apparent to others. Additionally, individuals may be able to hide or mask their impaired thinking, making it difficult to detect. Therefore, it is not always possible to determine if someone's thinking is harmed based solely on external observations.

    A. At risk

    Physical harm is only the harm you can see on the outside of your body.

    • True

    The statement is false because physical harm is not limited to what can be seen on the outside of the body.

    Physical harm always involves pain.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
