The person's genetic make up, obstetric complications and personality known as ................ factors in Psychopathology.
Answer: B
These are predisposing factors.
In the clinical formulation of psychopathology, often called the 4 P model, predisposing factors are long-standing vulnerabilities that make a disorder more likely: genetic make-up, obstetric or birth complications, early experiences and personality traits.
Precipitating factors are recent events that trigger an episode, such as a loss or a stressful change. Perpetuating factors keep the problem going once it has begun. 'Prenatal' names a period of time, not a class of causes; birth complications would in any case fall under predisposing factors.
