Psychobiological Disorder Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which condition is a response to extreme trauma?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying event - either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and uncontrollable thoughts about the event. Many people who go through traumatic events may have temporary difficulty adjusting and coping, but with time and good self-care, they usually get better. If the symptoms get worse, last for months or even years, and interfere with your day-to-day functioning, you may have PTSD. Treatment typically includes psychotherapy and medication.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following is a factor responsible for alcoholism?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) can stem from different factors. Biological factors include genetics and brain chemistry, such as the influence of up to 51 genes that may increase susceptibility to alcoholism. Psychosocial factors involve psychological conditions like stress, anxiety, or depression, which can lead to habitual drinking as a coping mechanism. Socio-cultural factors encompass social influences like family exposure to alcohol, cultural norms, and proximity to alcohol establishments, all of which contribute to alcoholism. Thus, all three factors—biological (I), psychosocial (II), and socio-cultural (III)—are responsible.
