In the late 1700s, James was isolated from the public by his family members on account of his mental illness. His family kept him locked in a room, and brought him his meals. However, his brother began to allow him to move more freely throughout the house. In addition, he was allowed to sit outside and work in the garden.

Answer 1

Moral treatment

Step-by-step explanation:

In psychology and psychopathology the Moral treatment was an approach to mental illness that was initiated by William Tuke in the 18th century (1700's). Back then, people with mental illnesses were often isolated and locked in a room as if they weren't persons. The Moral treatment opposed to this kind of treating people and thought people with mental illness needed to be treated as humans. As a consequence to this, people with mental illnesses under this treatment started getting some chores assigned to them (such as cleaning and gardening) and started hanging out during dinner with the rest of the persons in the house or asylum they were in.

In this example, we are in the 1700's and James has a mental illness and has been locked in a room. However, his brother now starts allowing him to sit outside, move around the house and work in the garden. We can see that James' brother is treating him the way he deserves as a human and assigning him some chores and letting him walk more freely instead of keeping him locked in a room. Therefore, we can see that this would be representative of the Moral treatment.
