Answer 1

Answer 1. The convoy model provides a skewed understanding of the importance of social relationships in the context of adult development

The answer Is False

These relationships vary in their closeness, quality, function and structure which are influenced by personal and situational characteristics while having significant implications for health and well-being on the individual.
