Answer to Question 1

A
Children with the medical diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder may have difficulty establishing trusting relationships because they are very concerned about their perceived competency. The following questions are used to evaluate this skill: Does the child enjoy making friends? Does the child often feel picked on by other people? Does the child not know what to say when getting to know someone?

Answer to Question 2

D
The patient has distorted thinking about the appearance of his nose and has highly negative and self-critical thoughts. Cognitive behavioral therapy can address and change these automatic responses.
