Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Remotivation is an important adjunct to therapy. This reality orientation attempts to focus attention on the present, calling on memories from the client's past (reminiscence). Reminiscence and reality orientation are useful strategies to promote mental stimulation and validation of life's past events. Cognitive and physical therapy encourage thinking exercises and physical exercise, respectively. Pet therapy provides pets to clients to provide companionship, stimulate the sense of touch, facilitate interactions, and encourage a sense of responsibility.
