Question

who would most likely develop an alcohol addiction in adulthood?

○ a teen who uses alcohol to cope with family problems
○ a teen who has a drink with friends at a birthday party
○ a young adult who drinks once a week after work with friends
○ a young adult who serves as the designated driver for parties

Explanation:

Using alcohol to cope with family problems (a teen in the first option) indicates using alcohol as a coping mechanism, which is a risk factor for developing addiction. Occasional social drinking (second and third options) or being a designated driver (fourth option) are not associated with the same level of risk for addiction as using alcohol to deal with personal issues.

Answer:

a teen who uses alcohol to cope with family problems
