Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
A goal of behavioral health-managed care has been to reduce hospital admissions, which are the most expensive part of psychiatric care. Unfortunately, some managed care gatekeepers have denied or restricted access to needed services and therefore have added to the discouragement, distress, and even despair of clients and their families.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Psychological influences on mental health include interactions, intelligence quotient, self-concept, skills, creativity, and emotional developmental level. Neuroanatomy is a biological influence on mental health. Values, beliefs, and religion are sociocultural influences on mental health.
