Which of the following statements reflects the World Health Organization’s definition of health?
a) A state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity.
Such a definition, however, does not allow for any variations in the degrees of wellness or illness.
b) A condition of homeostatis and adaptation.
The WHO definition addresses physical, mental, and social dimensions of being.
c) An individual’s location along a wellness–illness continuum.
The concept of a health–illness continuum allows for a greater range in describing a person’s health than the definition provided by the WHO.
d) A fluid, ever-changing balance reflected through physical, mental, and social behavior.
