Answer to Question 1

A
Depression is sometimes associated with unresolved anger and may result from stress. A person with hypochondriasis is preoccupied with feelings that he will become seriously ill. In somatization, anxiety and emotional turmoil are expressed in physical symptoms, loss of physical function, pain that changes location often, and depression. Malingering is a conscious effort to avoid unpleasant situations. Hypochondriasis, somatization, and malingering are not associated with unresolved anger.

Answer to Question 2

B
A concept is a mental image of a phenomenon, an aspect of reality that you can observe and experience. In the scenario above, the nurse forms a mental image of pain because of her past experiences with pain. Phenomena are the subject matter of a discipline. They mark the boundaries of a discipline. An assumption is an idea that is taken for granted. In a theory, the assumption is the idea that the researcher presumes to be true and does not intend to test with research. A definition is a statement of meaning of a term or concept that sets forth the concept's characteristics or indicators.
