Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: Individuals with obsessive-compulsive personality disorder strive at all times to keep the world predictable and organized. They have difficulty in completing projects. Individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder are excessively conscientious and rigid and are unable to tolerate mistakes or spontaneity. They feel required to fulfill unending duties, responsibilities, and tasks, are self-critical, and adhere strictly and concretely to rules. Individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder rarely express their feelings openly.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Individuals with schizoid personality disorder show a preference for solitary interests and claim to enjoy being alone. These individuals typically work at occupations that require minimal social interaction. High risk for Self-Directed violence and fear would be appropriate diagnoses for borderline personality disorder. Ineffective Individual Coping related to high dependency needs would be an appropriate nursing diagnosis for dependent personality disorder.
