Mild intoxication may include which manifestation related to behavior?

• A. Induces a state of relaxation and socially acceptable behaviour
• B. May experience altered decision making
• C. Unwanted physical touch
• D. Complete memory loss

Answer: (C)

Mild intoxication tends to reduce a person’s inhibitions and impulse control, so behavior can become more disinhibited or inappropriate even if the person feels mostly “okay.” This makes behaviors such as unwanted physical touch a plausible behavioral manifestation, because someone who is under the influence may act on impulses they would normally restrain.

In contrast, altered decision making is a cognitive change, not a direct behavior, and complete memory loss indicates a more severe level of intoxication (blackout) rather than something mild. While some people might feel more relaxed or socially acceptable in some cases, that is not a reliable, definitive sign of mild intoxication, whereas disinhibited actions like unwanted touch are more clearly tied to this level of impairment.
