Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,2,3,5
Rationale: Other factors indicating problems include a variety of physical complaints, digestive disorders, increase in isolation, problems with close relationships, and financial failure. Brain tumors are not an indicator for suicide.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,2,3
Rationale: These young adults, known as Boomerang Kids, have moved back into their parents' homes after an initial period of independent living. Another factor that has contributed to this trend is high divorce rates. Chronic disease is not in high incidence among this age group.
