How did enlightenment thinkers and writers set the stage for revolutionary movements?

alexira [117]

The enlightenment thinkers developed a key set of doctrines that focused on the inalienable rights of mankind and developed thinking around under what circumstances a person might leave the freedom of nature and become subservient to government.

This was impactful on many, including the American framers, who sought to redefine their role to the King.

sdas [7]

During the mental status examination, a client may be asked to explain such proverbs as "Don't cry over spilled milk." The purpose of this is to evaluate the client's ability to think: abstractly.

The correct option is a.

Abstract thinking is the capacity to comprehend and decipher meaning. It's a higher level of intellectual functioning than concrete thinking, in which the client explains the proverb by its literal meaning. Rational thinking involves the capacity to think clearly, make decisions, and be goal-directed.

Tangential thinking is scattered, non-goal-directed, and hard to follow. Clients with such conditions as organic brain disease and schizophrenia typically can't conceptualise and comprehend abstract meaning. Their literal interpretation of phrases like "Don't cry over spilled milk" is "Even if you spill your milk, you shouldn't cry about it."

During the mental status examination, a client may be asked to explain such proverbs as "Don't cry over spilled milk." The purpose of this is to evaluate the client's ability to think:

a. abstractly.

b. tangentially.

c. concretely.

d. rationally.
