What is the medical terminology used when someone repeats a phrase or action over and over?

  1. a. Perservation

  2. b. Recurrence

  3. c. Repetition

  4. d. Stuttering

The correct answer is: a. Perservation

The correct answer is "Perservation." Perservation is the medical terminology used to describe when someone repeats a phrase or action over and over. This behavior can be observed in individuals with certain neurological or psychiatric conditions. The other options (Recurrence, Repetition, Stuttering) do not specifically capture the concept of repeating a phrase or action in a medical context as effectively as "Perservation" does.
