Which people with mental illness,if any,have a greater than average risk of violent behavior?​

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is important to note, however, that the vast majority of individuals with mental illness never become violent. The other options (A, C, D) are incorrect as they generalize all mentally ill individuals as being at greater risk of violent behavior, which is not supported by research.
