A. pervasive.

Explanation: Although both of these terms refer to feeling states of the individual, it would be correct to say that affect is more pervasive than mood. In the mental status exam, there are several items to take into consideration. One of these aspects is emotion. Emotion is divided into mood and affect. The mood refers to what the individual is saying and affect refers to the immediate expression of emotion and congruence between what he says and the emotion he shows.

Further explanation

Mental health is influenced by events in life that leave a large impact on one's personality and behavior. These events can be in the form of domestic violence, child abuse, or long term severe stress. If mental health is disturbed, mental disorders or mental illness will arise. Mental disorders can change the way a person handles stress, relates to others, makes choices, and can trigger a desire to hurt himself.

Some types of mental disorders that are commonly found, including depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and psychosis. Some mental illnesses only occur in certain types of sufferers, such as postpartum depression only attacks the mother after giving birth.

A person who is mentally healthy can use his abilities or potential to the maximum in facing life's challenges, as well as establishing positive relationships with others.

Conversely, people whose mental health is disturbed will experience mood disorders, the ability to think, and emotional control which can ultimately lead to bad behavior.

Depression is a low mood and does not want to indulge. This can affect a person's thoughts, behavior, motivation, feelings, and well-being. It may display sadness, difficulty in thinking and concentration and a significant increase or decrease in appetite and time spent sleeping.
