Answer to Question 1

3
Cultural competence seeks to deliver appropriate client care based on knowledge of the cli-ent's culture.

Answer to Question 2

The theory of interpersonal relationships recognizes the anxiety and depression as resulting from unmet interpersonal security needs. Behaviorism and classical conditioning theories do not apply.
