Answer to Question 1

Answer: 4
Explanation: A group on stress management is a psychoeducational group. Psychoeducational groups provide instruction related to a specific topic, such as medication administration or anger or stress management. A psychodynamic or psychotherapy group is led by a trained/licensed clinician or therapist and designed to help participants identify triggers, work through issues, and develop new skills. A support group is led by members motivated to seek help from their peers to improve progress or receive support related to a health or mental health issue. An activity group offers creative, low-stress opportunities for individuals to explore their emotions or gain some type of health benefit in a small group setting.

Answer to Question 2

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
