What term describes actions that harm or threaten the well-being of others?

• A. Positive Reward Strategies
• B. Anti-Social Behaviour
• C. Community Service
• D. Restorative Justice

Answer: (B)

Actions that harm or threaten the well-being of others are described as anti-social behaviour. This term covers conduct that disrespects others’ safety, rights, or quality of life, such as vandalism, intimidation, harassment, or persistent nuisance. It focuses on the behavior itself and its impact on the community, not on how to respond to it.

Positive Reward Strategies are about encouraging good behaviour through rewards, so they describe ways to promote desirable actions rather than harmful acts. Community Service is a sanction or corrective measure used to address wrongdoing, not the type of behaviour. Restorative Justice focuses on repairing harm and rebuilding relationships after an incident, rather than naming the behaviour itself.
