When an individual is taking steps to modify his or her behavior to solve a problem, he or she is considered to be in what stage?

action

Explanation:

According to Prochaska and Norcross, change is not a linear progression through different stages, but five stages people move through in a spiral pattern: pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance.

Action is the stage in which people change their behavior to solve a problem. Action requires the strongest commitment of time and effort, and the results tend to be the most visible and externally recognized.

the arab empire adopted the muslim religion as their main belief. arabs would influence the people from the territories they invaded towards islam (the muslim belief).

nevertheless, throughout the history of the arab empire, rulers brought intellectual individuals from other religions to their centers of learning. these other foreigners included jews, christians, greeks, persians, and indians.   these resulted in the adoption of important knowledge developed by these cultures by the arabic empire. for example, the works of aristotle were translated from greek to arab and indian scientists brought the numerical concept of "zero" to the arabs.

nowadays, 93% of the arab population is muslim, which at the same time is subdivided in sects including the sunni, zaini, alawi, shia. the remaining 7% is composed mainly of christians.
