Answer to Question 1

C
Aversion therapy applies an aversive or noxious stimulus when a maladaptive behavior occurs. Aversion therapy has sometimes been criticized as unethical and detrimental to patients' well-being since it subjects the patient to physically and emotionally unpleasant or even harmful experiences.

Answer to Question 2

B
Health care provider behaviors that promote trust in survivors of intimate partner violence include demonstrating personal concern. Concern is usually directed toward all parties involved and increases the likelihood of developing a trusting nurse-client relationship. The nurse would use nursing strategies that focus on primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention to reduce the possibility of future violence from occurring.
