Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
A patient is able to express feelings on the emotional, physical, and symbolic levels during activity therapy, whereas verbal therapies are limited to one dimension. The primary facilita-tor of the selected therapy is required to have formal education and supervised experience. Adjunct therapy does not provide this opportunity, which would be considered nontherapeu-tic. Treatment settings are not always readily available.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Recognizing and pointing out positive changes provides encouragement to continue pursuing change. The remaining option would not achieve the nurse's goal of supporting the patient's use of effective coping techniques.
