Question 1 of 5
A charge, nurse is teaching new staff members about factors that increase a client's risk to become violent: Which of the following risk factors should the nurse include as the best predictor of future violence?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Previous violent behavior. This is the best predictor of future violence because past behavior is a strong indicator of future actions. Individuals who have a history of violent behavior are more likely to engage in violent acts again.
Choice A (A history of being in prison) is not as strong of a predictor as it does not specifically address violent behavior.
Choice B (Male gender) is a generalization and not always indicative of violent behavior.
Choice C (Experiencing delusions) may increase the risk of violence but does not directly predict future violent behavior as strongly as previous violent actions do.
