Question

which is a barrier to leading a substance - free lifestyle?
○ emotional stability
○ fear of judgment
○ decreased spending
○ fewer legal problems

Explanation:

To determine a barrier to leading a substance - free lifestyle, we analyze each option:

• "emotional stability" is actually a positive factor that helps in maintaining a substance - free lifestyle, not a barrier.
• "fear of judgment" can be a significant barrier. People may be afraid of being judged by others if they try to quit substances or lead a substance - free life, which can prevent them from taking steps towards it.
• "decreased spending" is a benefit of a substance - free lifestyle as substances often cost money, so it is not a barrier.
• "fewer legal problems" is also a benefit of a substance - free lifestyle since substance use is often associated with legal issues, so it is not a barrier.

Answer:

B. fear of judgment (assuming the options are labeled as A. emotional stability, B. fear of judgment, C. decreased spending, D. fewer legal problems)
