Answer to Question 1

B
A psychoeducational group for caregivers explores the causes of schizophrenia, the role of medication and other treatments, promoting treatment adherence, what the caregivers can expect to see and how best to respond, and support for the ill member and caregivers. Such a group can be of immeasurable practical assistance to the family. The other types of therapy are designed to address dysfunction in the family unit or members of the family and do not focus on improving the family's understanding of the illness and how to manage it.

Answer to Question 2

A
In a good death, a person controls his or her own destiny.
