Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
In this response the nurse responds to the mother's sense of failure and encourages elaboration. 1. This statement is true, but putting it in these terms may block further elaboration by the other. 2. Giving advice does not allow for clarification of the mother's feelings. 4. This is not a realistic approach and does not address the mother's concern.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Depression is diagnosed in 40 to 75 of individuals with eating disorders. The other disorders listed are not usually associated with eating disorders.
