Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Based on epidemiologic research, depression is one of the leading disease burdens in middle- and high-income countries, such as the United States. By 2030, depression is projected to be the leading burden worldwide.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
One way to reduce public stigma is to use nonstigmatizing language. Rather than referring to the client as schizophrenic or bipolar, it is more appropriate to say the client with schizophrenia or the client with bipolar disorder. Terms such as maniac and psycho reinforce the negative images of mental illness.
