What differentiates 'situational' from 'chronic' neglect?

Frequency
Intensity
Duration
Reversibility

The correct answer is: Duration

Chronic neglect is defined as long-term or ongoing neglect, while situational neglect is a one-time or temporary occurrence. Therefore, the main difference between them is duration, making option C the correct answer. Options A and B, frequency and intensity, cannot be used to differentiate because both types of neglect can vary in frequency and intensity. Option D, reversibility, is also incorrect because both types of neglect can have long-term consequences regardless of whether or not it is reversible.
