Answer to Question 1

A
By ignoring the situation, client A avoids conflict, denies her feelings, and does not assertively resolve the problem. This is an example of nonassertive behavior.

Answer to Question 2

A
Individuals with low self-esteem perceive themselves to be incompetent, unlovable, insecure, and unworthy. A correctly written actual nursing diagnosis must have a related to (R/T) and an evidenced by (AEB) statement. A risk for nursing diagnosis does not contain an AEB statement because the problem has not yet occurred.
