Answer to Question 1

Always having negative value is not a characteristic of one-way communication, because one-way communication may have either positive or negative value. The remaining options are characteristics of one-way communication.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Chiding is scolding. The intent of the communication is not to give advice but to chastise the patient for noncompliance. Probing is pushing for additional information. The question at the end of the scolding is rhetorical and does not ask for actual information.
