Question 1 of 5
Which of the following best describes tangentiality?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Tangentiality is when the speaker's thoughts wander off in another direction, deviating from the main topic. This can lead to disjointed and irrelevant speech.
Choice A (made up words) does not relate to tangentiality.
Choice B (repeating of another's words) is more aligned with echolalia.
Choice D (meaningless rhythm of words) refers to clang association.
Therefore, the correct answer is C as it best captures the essence of tangentiality in communication.
