Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Interpersonal communication is one-to-one interaction between the nurse and another person that often occurs face to face. Transpersonal communication is interaction that occurs within a per-son's spiritual domain while intrapersonal communication, self-talk or self-instruction provides a mental rehearsal for difficult tasks or situations so individuals are able to deal with them more effectively. Nonverbal communication includes all five senses and everything that does not in-volve the spoken or written word.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
You determine the need for clarification by watching the listener for nonverbal cues that suggest confusion or misunderstanding. The remaining options are means of reinforcing or evaluating the listener's understanding of the information.
