Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reactive attachment disorder is the condition characterized by a pattern of disturbed and developmentally inappropriate attachment behaviors. Option A is incorrect because disinhibited social engagement disorder is a condition where children are overly friendly and show no fear towards strangers, which is a different type of attachment behavior. Option B is also incorrect as post-traumatic stress disorder is a mental health condition that develops after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, not necessarily related to attachment behaviors. Option D is incorrect as chronic fatigue syndrome is a medical condition characterized by severe fatigue, which is unrelated to attachment behaviors.
