2. Vulnerability factor

Rationale:
Vulnerability factors increase one's risk of being a victim of violence. The client with a walking disability avoids the possibility of a crime by not going out alone at night. Predisposing factors are those that increase one's risk of violent victimization or perpetration of violence. Risk factors increase the potential that one will perpetrate violence on others. Precipitating factors are those that give rise to a specific incident of violence.
