Enuresis involves which behavior?

Enuresis is specifically defined as the involuntary discharge of urine, particularly during sleep, and is most commonly recognized in children. This condition typically presents as bedwetting and is characterized by the inability to control urination, which can occur after a person has reached the appropriate age where bladder control should have been established.

Understanding enuresis within the context of developmental milestones is crucial; children often achieve bladder control by a certain age, and if they continue to experience involuntary urination past this age, it may lead to social or psychological stress. The focus on the inability to control the passing of urine highlights the nature of the disorder, distinguishing it from other behavioral or psychological issues that manifest in different ways.

The other behaviors mentioned in the choices pertain to entirely different psychological or medical conditions and do not relate to enuresis, emphasizing how enuresis is unique in its definition and presentation in the context of the DSM-5.
