Which of the following best describes a "qualm"?

  1. A strong belief

  2. A minor concern or doubt

  3. A large issue

  4. A settled opinion

The correct answer is: A minor concern or doubt

A "qualm" is defined as a feeling of uneasiness, doubt, or hesitation, often regarding a moral issue or the rightness of an action. This term typically refers to a minor concern or doubt that can arise in various situations, reflecting inner conflict rather than a strong or established belief. While the other choices detail more resolute concepts—such as a strong belief, a large issue, or a settled opinion—none capture the essence of a "qualm" as effectively as the notion of having a minor concern or doubt. This understanding highlights the nuance in the term, emphasizing that qualms do not signify a firm stance or a large dilemma, but rather a subtle uncertainty or apprehension.
