Answer to Question 1

A
Paranoid personality disorders are diagnosed in up to 2.5 of the population, more often in men than in women.

Answer to Question 2

D
Battery is an intentional tort in which one individual violates the rights of another through touching without consent. Forcing a patient to take medication after the medication has been refused constitutes battery. The charge of battery can be brought against the nurse.
