Answer to Question 1

A
The patient's profession that he may be able to learn to cope more effectively reflects hope. Groups can instill hope in individuals who are demoralized or pessimistic. Altruism refers to doing good for others, which can result in positive feelings about oneself. Catharsis refers to venting of strong emotions. Cohesion refers to coming together and developing a connection with other group members.

A
Ethnopharmacology is the study of genetic and ethnic variations in drug pharmacokinetics. Pharmacodynamics is a broader term. Neurasthenia is a culture-bound syndrome. Genetics is only partially correct.
