a) true attachment of new meaning to experiences
b) perceptual distortions and hallucinations
c) sudden and unexpected displays of emotional extremes
d) all of the above

Respuesta :

Answer: D

Explanation: The correct answer is letter D, all of the above.

A person who suffers from an altered state of conciousness, is probably going to experience hallucinations or perceptual distortions that also will cause him to change the meaning of new experiences. Depending on how the state of conciousness is altered (higher state of lower state), the person will experience different extremes of emotions, if its a lower state it will probably feel more depressed, whereas in higher states it will probably feel more maniac or exalted.
