Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Risk factors refer to the factors that increase the likelihood of drug use. These may include peer pressure, exposure to drugs, unstable home life, and mental health issues. Correlation does not necessarily imply causation, so A is not the best choice. Drug profiles and weaknesses are not commonly used terms in this context.
