Question

The women victims move through different adjustment phases; arrange the following phases from I to IV:
A. Avoidance Humiliation (by) family members, kin, friends etc.
B. Adaption (through): Neutralization, attachment, identity change, religious consolation
C. Removing pain (depends on): support and security
D. Shock and pain (depends on): nature of crime committed against her and also on factors like age, employment, education, etc.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. $A\rightarrow B\rightarrow D\rightarrow C$
• B. $A\rightarrow D\rightarrow C\rightarrow B$
• C. $D\rightarrow C\rightarrow A\rightarrow B$
• D. $D\rightarrow A\rightarrow B\rightarrow C$

Hint:

Psychologically, recovery starts with Shock and ends with Removing the Pain. The social stigma (Humiliation) usually happens before the victim successfully adapts.

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the Question:

• Phase IV is Adaptation (B) through neutralization, attachment, identity change and religious consolation.
