Question

which benefit is gained when abstaining from both substances and sexual activity?
o enhanced self - esteem
o reduced substance addiction
o reduced risk of car accidents
o improved academic performance

Explanation:

Abstaining from substances and sexual activity can contribute to a sense of personal control and alignment with one’s values, which often leads to enhanced self-esteem. The other options are not universal or direct benefits of abstaining from both: reduced substance addiction is specific to substance abstinence alone, reduced car accidents is not directly linked to sexual abstinence, and improved academic performance is not a guaranteed outcome of either form of abstinence.

Answer:

enhanced self-esteem
