Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Having a parent with a substance abuse problem has been designated an adverse psychosocial condition that increases the risk of a child developing a psychiatric condition. Being in a middle-income family and being the oldest child are not considered psychosocial adversity. Having a family history of schizophrenia presents a risk, but an alcoholic parent in the family is more imminent.
