Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Antisocial personality disorder is characterized by a disregard for and violation of the rights of others. Antisocial personality disorder is a common diagnosis for those in prison and jails.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The client is trying to manipulate the nurse in order to gratify his immediate need for a cigarette. In responding to manipulative behavior, the most therapeutic intervention is to maintain the limits that have been set and not to change the rules or make concessions for the client. The correct answer is the only option that is clear and assertive and maintains the rules.
