Question: 1 / 50

What does "articulable and significant threat" mean?

A threat based on hearsay information

A threat that is communicated directly to the licensee

A threat that can be explained or articulated and involves substantial bodily harm

An "articulable and significant threat" refers to a threat that can be clearly explained or articulated and has the potential to cause serious physical harm to a person or group. Option A is incorrect because it only involves hearsay information, meaning the threat was not directly witnessed or experienced by the person. Option B is incorrect because it only involves threats that are communicated directly to the licensee, but does not consider threats that may have been communicated indirectly. Option D is incorrect because it focuses on emotional distress, rather than physical harm. Option C is the correct and most comprehensive answer because it considers both the ability to articulate the threat and the potential for significant physical harm.

A threat that causes emotional distress
