an intervention focuses on teaching middle - schoolers healthy anger management techniques. what type of prevention is this intervention?
○ secondary; criminal
○ secondary; situational
○ primary; situational
○ primary; developmental

Explanation:

1. First, recall prevention types: Primary prevention aims to prevent problems before they occur, often through developmental or universal interventions. Developmental prevention targets youth during key developmental stages (like middle - schoolers) to build skills (anger management) that prevent future issues.
2. Secondary prevention is for early detection/intervention of existing problems, which doesn't fit here as the intervention is teaching skills to prevent issues, not addressing existing ones.
3. Situational prevention focuses on environmental changes, while developmental is about individual development. This intervention teaches middle - schoolers (a developmental stage) skills, so it's primary (preventive) and developmental.

Answer:

D. Primary; Developmental
