Answer to Question 1

A
Statistics tell us that children raised by a depressed mother have a 30 to 50 chance of developing
an emotional disorder. The other factors are not risk enhancing.

Answer to Question 2

C
Nicotine meets the criteria for substance, the criterion for dependence (tolerance) is present, and
withdrawal symptoms are noted with abstinence or reduction of dose. The scenario does not meet
criteria for substance abuse, intoxication, or recreational use of a social drug.
