What does low frustration tolerance indicate about an individual with IDD?

Low frustration tolerance in individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) suggests that they may struggle to cope with stressors or challenges. This inability to manage frustration can lead to behaviors such as anger and impulsivity. When faced with situations that they find difficult or frustrating, they may react more explosively or unpredictably than individuals who possess higher frustration tolerance. This reaction is often due to limited coping skills or a lack of strategies to manage their emotions effectively. Thus, option B accurately reflects the connection between low frustration tolerance and the potential for exhibiting anger or impulsive behaviors.

The other options do not align with the understanding of low frustration tolerance. For example, individuals with low frustration tolerance generally do not handle stress effectively or remain calm during crises, as suggested in options A and C. Furthermore, the notion of ignoring feelings (option D) does not accurately depict the volatility of emotions that often accompanies low frustration tolerance; rather, individuals may be overwhelmed by their feelings, leading to their impulsive or angry reactions.
