Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Based on epidemiologic research, depression is one of the leading disease burdens in middle- and high-income countries, such as the United States. By 2030, depression is projected to be the leading burden worldwide.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
One way to reduce public stigma is to use nonstigmatizing language. Rather than referring to the client as schizophrenic or bipolar, it is more appropriate to say the client with schizophrenia or the client with bipolar disorder. Terms such as maniac and psycho reinforce the negative images of mental illness.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
