Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
By allowing open communication about thoughts and feelings, the nurse creates an environment for therapeutic communications. Punching pillows does not create self-awareness. Writing complaint letters and venting can create more internal turmoil in a person and do not promote self-awareness.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Role overload involves having more roles or responsibilities than are manageable. Self-esteem is the overall feeling of self-worth. The nurse is not involved in an ethical or moral dilemma. Ego integrity is part of a developmental task associated with older adults.
