Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, E, F
In rural areas adjacent to a small city, suicide rates were 31 higher than suburban rates and 43 higher in rural areas that were not adjacent to small cities. Decreased access to mental health services for treatment of depression may contribute to these higher rates. Because of the lack of qualified mental health care providers, rural residents often receive services from primary care providers. Ethnic and racial disparities exist whether in urban or rural health care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, D, E, F
Genetic expressions, combined with neurochemical and metabolic changes and environmental insults, may result in the display of mental disorder characteristics. Evidence indicates that structural brain abnormalities can be related to some mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia, depression, and Alzheimer disease. Natural and manmade disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, violence, terrorism, war, and the global economic crisis are profound stress-inducing events that can lead to mental illness. Researchers reported high levels of PTSD among survivors.
