Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
An inference is an interpretation of behavior that is made by finding motive and forming conclusions without having all the necessary information. The nurse interprets the patient's behavior, decides on a reason, assigns a motive, and forms a conclusion. The remaining op-tions are validations of observations.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Psychiatric mental health nurses are able to spend the time to know the patient not only as a patient but as an individual. This is an opportunity most nurses whose practice is based on the physical care of the patient is not afforded. The remaining options are not necessarily unique to psychiatric nursing.
