Answer to Question 1

D
The patient's persistent intrusive thoughts are obsessions, and the need to continually clean is a compulsion. Hence, the patient's disorder can be identified as OCD. The symptoms are not consistent with any of the other options.

Answer to Question 2

A
Sexual acts that are forced on another are considered both morally and legally unacceptable. The other options are used less often as evaluation criteria.
