Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Treatment of anorexia nervosa is best accomplished using a multidisciplinary team. Psychotherapy is difficult to conduct when the patient is acutely ill because her ability to think is impaired by starvation. Weight is not the only factor to consider when deciding on inpatient care. Other important factors to consider include medical complications, suicide attempts or plans, failure to improve with outpatient treatment, comorbid psychiatric disorders, interference with school, work, or family, poor social support, pregnancy, and the unavailability of other treatment options.
