Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Exhibiting a lack of empathy or ability to express regret is a clear sign of distorted thoughts and lack of insight regarding the effects on the children. The other options show denial and poor insight in general.

Genital pain is a manifestation of dyspareunia. Ineffective muscle contractions are consistent with female sexual arousal disorder. Avoiding sex is consistent with hypoactive sexual dis-order. Insufficient lubrication is consistent with vaginismus.
