Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C, E
A nursing diagnosis is a statement of a client's functional problem. An actual nursing diagnosis must include related to (R/T) and as evidenced by (AEB) statements. A risk for diagnosis does not contain AEB because there is only a potential for the problem; it does not yet exist.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The nurse should evaluate that the client is assuming the individual role of the recognition seeker. Other individual roles include the aggressor, the blocker, the dominator, the help seeker, the monopolizer, and the seducer.
