Answer to Question 1

2, 3, 4, 5
Rationale: Some military women who report their sexual assaults are discharged with a psychiatric diagnosis of personality disorder or adjustment disorder. Some of the consequences of this diagnosis are loss of health-care benefits, loss of service-related disability compensation, and the stigma of a psychiatric diagnosis. The report of a sexual assault would not lead to courtmartial proceedings for the victim.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: The AIMS is a rating scale that was developed in the 1970s by the National Institute of Mental Health to measure involuntary movements associated with tardive dyskinesia.
