Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
The correct answer is the only statement that reflects that the client believes she has powers, abilities, or characteristics that go beyond those of normal individuals (delusions of grandeur).

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The correct answer reflects that the nurse is attempting to ask a question that will help her to understand the client's behaviors, which would be a culturally sensitive approach. The other answers demonstrate nonacceptance or a negative attitude from the nurse.
