Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Anxiety is transmissible from one person to another through empathy, the ability to experience
another's feelings. Option A: Introjected anxiety is an illogical answer; introjection is a defense
mechanism. Option B: Secondary anxiety is associated with a physical disorder. Option D:
Maturational anxiety arises from a situation in which a threat is present to achievement of a
developmental task.

Answer to Question 2

A
Seeking intervention to prevent self-mutilation signifies understanding of the relation between
feelings and behaviors, a mark of progress for an autistic individual. Options B and C do not suggest
client self-control of the behaviors. Option D is not a desirable substitution.
