And 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?

- Peer Testimony.

Explanation:

As per the question, the type of supporting material that Kim used would exemplify 'peer testimony' that is demonstrated as an assertion made by a person who might not be a proficient or expert in the field but instead having a personal experience with the subject. 'Peer testimonies' stand direct in contrast to 'expert testimonies' which are usually the testimonies (statements) proposed by a person who has expertise in that particular field or subject. Thus, the statement Kim included from the speech exemplifies a 'peer testimony'.
