Answer to Question 1

3,4
Rationale: Using silence. Using silence is a therapeutic communication technique, but not used to communicate active listening.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: A humanistic-interactional view indicates physical and mental factors are interrelated and that a change in one may result in a change in another. Principles of humanism stress that people have the power or potential to solve their own problems and are not passive recipients of care given by psychiatric professionals. People are influenced by their past and the full range of life experiences, not simply by the present situation. Humanistic-interactional principles include, but are not limited to, biological explanations of mental disorders.
