Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Paraphrasing is an example of a listening response that focuses on the client. Moralizing, giving advice, and false reassurances are all examples of negative listening responses.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Metacommunication refers to how nonverbal cues are used to enhance or negate the meaning of words. In addition to observable nonverbal behavior, client choices about clothing, personal and religious items, hairstyle and hygiene, and voluntary use of gestures inform, add to, and complete verbal messages. Behavioral communication is influenced by life circumstances, culture, and immediate context, so it is susceptible to misinterpretation and requires validation.
