Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) Practice Test

In which scenario might the individual feel uncomfortable at a party?

1. Meeting new people

2. Making small talk

3. Helping others initiate conversations

4. Not engaging with others

The correct answer is: Not engaging with others

Feeling uncomfortable at a party is often associated with a lack of social interaction and engagement. When an individual chooses not to engage with others, they may feel isolated or excluded from the social dynamics of the event. This absence of interaction can lead to feelings of loneliness or discomfort, as social gatherings typically encourage communication and mingling. In contrast, meeting new people, making small talk, and helping others initiate conversations generally involve active engagement with the social environment. While these activities can cause anxiety in some individuals, they contribute to the overall experience of socialization, which is less likely to lead to discomfort compared to remaining disengaged in a social setting.
