C

Feedback
A Incorrect. The general mood of the family may be affected by sense of belonging and love for each other, but this does not describe the affective function described by the structural-functional theory.
B Incorrect. Although the way feelings are addressed or not addressed in the family is important, this does not describe the affective function from the structural-functional theory.
C Correct. The affective function is one of the most vital functions for the formation and the continuation of the family unit. This function refers to the family meeting the need for love and belonging of each member.
D Incorrect. The shell of the family that it presents to the outside world is not a part of the affective function.

Answer to Question 2

The aura is a particular set of symptoms that may or may not occur before the onset of the seizure
The postictal state is a period after the seizure in which the patient is dazed and confused
