Answer:

Keegan probably suffered from B. Post traumatic stress disorder.

Explanation:

<em>Post traumatic stress disorder</em> or PTSD is a disorder triggered by a traumatic experience. It is characterized by the exposure to a near death experience or mayor lesion, for example, according to the DSM-5.

Symptoms include intrusion in the form of thoughts which are <em>constant and involuntary</em>, recurrent dreams, dissociative reactions and psychological discomfort, amongst others.

In this case, Keegan was shot and she is having intrusive thoughts about the experience and what it felt like. This is affecting her stress levels, making her angry and jumpy at external stimulus as well as wanting to avoid the scene where it happened.

What are the main purposes of regulatory policies? Check all that apply.
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

  • to protect constitutional rights, safety, and fairness.
  • to ensure that property rights are protected.
  • to create regulation in a mixed-market economy only when needed.

A government can influence the economy through regulatory policies. These policies aim to limit what can be done in the marketplace. Regulations cover areas such as banking, insurance and wages. These regulations are designed to protect constitutional rights and ensure safety and fairness. They also protect property rights. Government regulation does not try to give producers an advantage over consumers, nor does it allow producers and consumers to interact completely free of government interference. However, it does try to regulate the economy only when it is needed. This is not always done right, which can lead to overregulation or deregulation.
