Answer to Question 1

D
A client who repeatedly disrobes despite verbal limit setting needs more structure. One-on-one
supervision may provide the necessary structure. Option A has not proven successful. Option B
serves no purpose. Option C will not make a difference to the client whose grasp of social behaviors
is impaired by the illness.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Fluphenazine, a first-generation antipsychotic, exerts muscarinic blockade, resulting in dry mouth,
blurred vision, constipation, and urinary retention. Option A: Lithium therapy is more often
associated with fluid balance problems, including polydipsia, polyuria, and edema. Option B:
Risperidone therapy is more often associated with movement disorders, orthostatic hypotension, and
sedation. Option C: Buspirone is associated with anxiety reduction without major side effects.
