Answer to Question 1

D
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has had some success with clients who are anorexic. It has been more effective with clients who are bulimic. However, when a client who is anorexic is extremely emaciated, CBT and other psychotherapies lose priority over regaining nutritional balance for the client. In some cases, with profoundly emaciated clients who are anorexic, CBT is combined with force-feeding.

Answer to Question 2

B
Alcohol abuse or dependence was the most common diagnosis discovered by the ECA study. Anxiety, depression, and drug abuse were also fairly prevalent but not as prevalent as alcohol abuse or dependence.
