Question: 1 / 400

Which behavior would NOT typically indicate an emotional or behavioral disability?

Difficulty maintaining normal thought processes

Ability to create and maintain friendships

The ability to create and maintain friendships typically suggests social competence and emotional stability, which are not characteristic of an emotional or behavioral disability. Individuals with such disabilities often struggle with social interactions, leading to challenges in forming and sustaining relationships.

In contrast, the other behaviors listed—difficulty maintaining normal thought processes, chronic disruptive behaviors, and frequent feelings of fear—are common indicators of emotional or behavioral disabilities. These behaviors often reflect underlying difficulties with self-regulation, social cognition, and emotional management, which can hinder an individual's ability to function effectively in social contexts. Therefore, the correct choice highlights a behavior that signifies positive emotional and social functioning rather than a potential disability.
