Answer 1

The correct option is A) functional assessment

Step-by-step explanation:

In psychology, functional assessment can be described as a method to assess what parts of daily living are being affected by a person having a mental illness. The therapist tries to know what normal life routines are not being regulated by the patient and how mental illness is affecting his/her normal life. This assessment quickly lets the psychologist know what outcomes are needed which will help the patient to become stable. Hence, option A is the correct option.
