Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to research using Q-sort, those who are diagnosed with depression in adulthood are more likely to have been described as “undercontrolled” as children. Undercontrolled children are often impulsive, disobedient, and act-out, which are all risk factors for developing depression later in life. Therefore, the best choice for describing Mani as a child is undercontrolled.
