Answer to Question 1

D
All the problems described are indicators of depression in adolescents. Although the incidence of depression is twice as great in girls as in boys, the male suicide rate for 15- to 19-year-olds is five times the female rate.

Answer to Question 2

B
An axiom put forth by Watzlawick, Beavin, and Jackson (1967) is that all behavior is communication and conveys a message. Other axioms include all communication defines a relationship, persons communicate both verbally (content) and nonverbally (more about relationships), and all communication is either symmetrical or complementary.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
