Answer to Question 1

D
The leader must help group members show respect for each other. Identifying the possible feelings of the disruptive or hostile person addresses the process in the group. It will invite self-expression in a more constructive way or extinguish the behavior. If the disruption continues, the leader may need to confront the behavior or excuse the disruptive person.

Answer to Question 2

C
The correct option is the only statement addressing coping strategies used by the family. The other options seek opinions or are closed-ended.
