Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
This encourages the client to consider alternatives without giving advice. The other options are preludes to giving advice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Self-disclosure should serve one or more of the following purposes: to model and educate; to build the therapeutic alliance; to validate reality; to foster client autonomy. Expressing previously withheld feelings fosters autonomy. 1. The nurse does not use self-disclosure to inform clients about how to behave. 3. The goal will be to foster independence. 4. Therapeutic relationships fo-cus on the client, not the nurse.
