1 / 8
1. What antidotal phrase can help reverse the hazardous attitude of impulsivity?
Answer (A) is correct. (FAA-H-8083-25B Chap 2) Impulsivity is the attitude of people who frequently feel the need to do something, anything, immediately. They do not stop to think about what they are about to do. They do not select the best alternative but instead do the first thing that comes to mind. They should recognize this attitude and state the antidote, “Not so fast. Think first,” before taking action.
