The effects of child abuse last long after the child has grown to adulthood. As one victim of child abuse stated in a local newspaper article just last week, "I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes I still wake up in fear in the middle of the night. Even worse, I find myself raging at my own children and treating them like my parents treated me." What kind of supporting material did Kim use?

Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

In her speech about child abuse, Kim included the following statement:

The effects of child abuse last long after the child has grown to adulthood. As one victim of child abuse stated in a local newspaper article just last week, "I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes I still wake up in fear in the middle of the night. Even worse, I find myself raging at my own children and treating them like my parents treated me."

According to your textbook, what kind of supporting material did Kim use?

a. peer testimony

b. extended testimony

c. authoritative testimony

d. expert testimony

e. valid testimony

The best option is a. peer testimony.

Explanation:

As we can see in the passage, the person Kim is quoting is not an expert in child abuse. It is not a person who has conducted studies and analyzed data on the matter. Therefore, what we have is a peer testimony. A peer testimony is given by someone who does not have expertise in a particular matter. The person quoted by Kim does have some experience in the sense that he/she has suffered trauma concerning child abuse. That person is a victim whose life is still affected by what happened. His/Her testimony does not come from education, certification, training, or skills. It comes from having suffered abuse.
