Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: The progression of the disorder is not a criterion for determining the severity of an NCD. Abstract thinking and judgment can be affected in both mild NCD and major NCD. Major NCD criteria requires substantial cognitive decline, and mild NCD requires modest decline. Both major and mild NCD classifications require decline from a previous level of performance in only one of the listed domains.

Answer to Question 2

C
In addition to nearly half of the countries in the world that have no policy on mental health issues, approximately one third have no program for coping with the increasing numbers of mental health disabilities.
