Answer to Question 1

A, C
The first cycle is the tension phase. During this phase, she feels that she can control his behavior, and she feels that she does not deserve minor abuse.

Answer to Question 2

C
The patient has the right to refuse medication in most instances. The patient's reason for refusing should be ascertained, and the refusal should be reported to a unit nurse. Sometimes refusals are based on unpleasant side effects that can be ameliorated. Threats and manipulation are inappropriate. Medication refusal should be reported to permit appropriate intervention.
