Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: To increase self-awareness of a nurses own attitude about client autonomy and self-determination, there are several questions that one should ask. Stating that the nurse is comfortable with a client deciding what programs, schedules, activities, or rules will be is a positive statement. All the other statements are negative and the nurse should re-evaluate the feelings so that the nurse can be effective with helping the client work toward recovery.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,3,5
Rationale: External genital appearance. Intersex conditions include contradictions in external genital appearance.
