Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: The advantages of group therapy stem from one major factor: the presence of many people, rather than a solitary therapist, who participate in the therapeutic experience. Group therapy is not for the benefit of the therapist. While the nurse can work with more people in a group setting and, over time, the client may work with various therapists, these are not the most advantageous aspects of group therapy.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: Neologism refers to words or meanings that may be made up by the client and have special meaning to him. The client's usage of Shoz and Shozoid represent neologisms. Blocking refers to stopping a thought or sentence abruptly without finishing the thought. Clang association refers to the use of words which rhyme or sound alike but may not make sense. Echolalia refers to parroting back what was just said.
