Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Cognitive therapy addresses symptom removal by identifying and correcting distorted negative thinking. Option 1 is an insensitive nontherapeutic approach that will reinforce client negative thinking about self. Option 2 is a behavioral approach. Option 4 is a psychodynamic approach.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Flight of ideas is a continuous rapid flow of speech marked by jumping from topic to topic. It is a manifestation of thought disorder associated with inability to filter stimuli causing increased dis-tractibility. 1. This would be seen in depression. 3. This is not a symptom of a thought-flow dis-order. 4. This is not a symptom of a thought-flow disorder.
