Aurora Evans · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  During the contemplation stage, Madison is not yet ready to take action towards changing her habit, but is considering the possibility of change. This involves re-evaluating the role of her addiction in her life, weighing the pros and cons of changing, and considering the impact her addiction has on herself and those around her. Denial or immediate action are not typically associated with this stage. Joining a rehabilitation center may be a step taken in a later stage, such as preparation or action.
