Question
read the passage.
jason recently had an injury, and doctors prescribed him opioid pain medication while he was healing. while the medication did help with his pain levels, he was supposed to stop taking the medication after two weeks, but he has continued to take it for two months and has developed an addiction.
how can opioid dependency impact jason’s job performance? check all that apply.
□ jason begins to miss shifts due to lack of motivation.
□ jason earns recognition for his increased focus on work.
□ jason begins to see improvement of working relationships due to his stable mood.
□ jason sees increased challenges and risk of mistakes due to his ability to focus.
□ jason receives continued work advancement due to effective pain management.
Opioid dependency (addiction) typically causes negative impacts on job performance. Missing shifts due to lack of motivation is a common effect of addiction as it affects mental and physical functioning. Increased focus, improved work relationships, and work advancement are positive outcomes, which are unlikely with opioid dependency. The option about increased challenges due to focus issues aligns with how addiction can impair cognitive functions like focus, leading to more mistakes. Wait, re - evaluating: The first option "Jason begins to miss shifts due to lack of motivation" is correct because addiction can lead to decreased motivation and attendance issues. The fourth option "Jason sees increased challenges and risk of mistakes due to his ability to focus" - actually, opioid addiction often impairs focus, so this is also correct? Wait, let's re - check the options:
- "Jason begins to miss shifts due to lack of motivation": Addiction can cause apathy, lack of motivation, so this is a valid negative impact on job performance.
- "Jason earns recognition for his increased focus on work": Opioid addiction usually reduces focus, so this is incorrect.
- "Jason begins to see improvement of working relationships due to his stable mood": Addiction often causes mood instability, so this is incorrect.
- "Jason sees increased challenges and risk of mistakes due to his ability to focus": Wait, the wording is "due to his ability to focus" - but addiction impairs focus. Maybe a typo, but if we assume it's "due to his inability to focus", then this would be correct. But as written, maybe the intended meaning is that his focus is impaired, leading to challenges and mistakes. So this could be correct.
- "Jason receives continued work advancement due to effective pain management": His pain management is not effective as he's addicted, and addiction would not lead to work advancement.
Wait, maybe I misread the fourth option. Let's re - read: "Jason sees increased challenges and risk of mistakes due to his ability to focus" - that doesn't make sense. Maybe it's a mistake, and it should be "inability". But given the options, the first option is clearly correct, and maybe the fourth is also intended to be correct (if there's a typo). But let's go back to the passage: Jason has an opioid addiction. Opioid addiction can cause decreased motivation (leading to missed shifts), and impaired cognitive function (leading to more mistakes and challenges at work). So the correct options are the first and the fourth? Wait, no, the fourth option's wording is "due to his ability to focus" - that's contradictory. Maybe it's a mistake, and it's supposed to be "inability". Assuming that, the correct options are:
- Jason begins to miss shifts due to lack of motivation.
- Jason sees increased challenges and risk of mistakes due to his (inability to) focus.
But based on the given options, the first option is correct, and maybe the fourth (if we assume a wording error). But let's check each option:
- Miss shifts due to lack of motivation: Addiction can cause motivational issues, so this is correct.
- Earn recognition for increased focus: Addiction reduces focus, so incorrect.
- Improved work relationships due to stable mood: Addiction causes mood swings, so incorrect.
- Increased challenges and risk of mistakes due to ability to focus: This is illogical as addiction impairs focus. But maybe it's a mistake, and it's "inability". If we take it as a mistake, this is correct.
- Work advancement due to effective pain management: His pain management is no…
