Before the accident, Bob was unemployed and had few friends. Lionel, who suffered comparable head trauma, was a successful businessman and had just married. Which of these men should have a more favorable outcome and why?

Respuesta :

Answer:     Lionel, because he is more likely to be motivated to recover

Explanation:  Since Bob had only a few friends before the accident and was unemployed, there was less motivation to recover. On the other hand, Lionel was a successful businessman who had just married and would have a much greater motivation for recovery. Since such traumas and injuries can have emotional consequences, that is, be emotionally traumatic, motivation and reasons for recovery are sure to play a crucial role during recovery. The reasons why one is motivated to recover are crucial in dealing with emotional traumas, and Lionel certainly has more reason to be motivated to recover.
