Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
In the generativity versus self-absorption developmental task, a self-absorbed person is concerned about his or her own personal wants and desires in a self-centered manner. Mistrust versus trust occurs in the first year of life. Industry versus inferiority commonly occurs in school children. Identity versus role confusion commonly occurs at the start of adolescence into young adulthood.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
A nurse can identify situational life stressors that can impact a person's self-concept. By openly exploring a patient's thoughts and feelings, the nurse will be able to use communication skills in a therapeutic manner. This will facilitate the patient's insight into behaviors and will enable the nurse to make referrals or provide needed health teaching. The length of time married and the reason for the parents' divorce do not explain the patient's behaviors. Why the patient is out of control is not as important as how the patient views her actions when out of control.
