Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Physical exercise may assist in relieving tension and promoting feelings of well being. 1. Knitting is tedious and requires steadiness, which the client may not have if symptoms of anxiety include jitteriness. 2. This activity requires fine motor coordination, not always present if a client is anx-ious. 3. Some clients find puzzles frustrating and become more tense while working on one.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Erikson's theory postulates that difficulties in adjustment occur when age-appropriate behaviors or tasks are not completed, resulting in an inability to move forward with developmental tasks. Options 1, 2, and 3 are not related to Erikson's theory.
