Answer to Question 1

A
Having the patient visit the nursing home before actually moving and having familiar staff visit the patient in the nursing home can reduce relocation stress syndrome. The other options will do little to make a safe and uneventful transition.

Answer to Question 2

D
Voyeurism is a paraphilia in which sexual excitement is derived from observing the bodies of others or observing others engaging in sexual activities. Oftentimes, for individuals with strong voyeuristic urges, they gain more excitement from watching others' bodies or watching others engage in sexual activities than they do engaging in sexual activities themselves.
