Quizplus · Accepted Answer

"Behavioral emergency" and "crisis emergency" can both be interpreted as situations where immediate action is required to prevent harm to oneself or others, rather than describing the individual exhibiting the behavior. "Emotionally disturbed episode" may not accurately capture the severity or nature of the behavior. "Behavioral crisis" is a more accurate term to describe the situation of a person exhibiting harmful or self-destructive behavior. "Behavioral emergency" may also be an acceptable answer but "Behavioral crisis" is a more accurate term.
