Answer to Question 1

C
Peplau's goal of nursing is to develop interpersonal interaction between client and nurse. Orem's goal is to help client attain self-care, Watson's goal is to promote and restore health, and Roy's goal is to identify demands on clients and adaptation.

Answer to Question 2

B
The behaviors described here are compulsions. Persons demonstrating such behaviors feel compelled to take such actions and experience distress (or will not experience relief from distress) until they do. Compulsions serve the purpose of temporarily relieving anxiety. Obsessions may involve sexual themes, but the purpose of compulsions is to relieve anxiety. Guilt may be also be obsessive in nature, but compulsive behavior does not relieve guilt. Repetitive behavior can increase one's sense of security temporarily but does not reduce uncertainty or confusion.
