Answer to Question 1

B
Somatization describes physical symptoms that are related to emotional stressors or problems. Responses A and C are incorrect. Often an individual's physical complaints have been minimized (labeled hypochondria) because there has been no apparent cause for the symptoms. Many physical problems (response D) can cause an individual to exhibit emotional side effects. Depression and grief are just two emotional responses to two physical problems. This is not somatization, however.

Answer to Question 2

C
Benner categorizes nurses in a positive manner: novice, advanced beginner, competent, proficient, and expert.
