Donald has sought medical treatment for his erectile dysfunction. He was surprised when his physician would only prescribe medication (e.g., Viagra) on the condition that he also consults with a psychologist.
 
  Why would the physician make that recommendation?
 
  a) Because the physician probably gets a kick-back from the psychologist
  b) Because the cause and treatment of sexual dysfunctions often involve psychosocial factors
  c) Because the physician knows the medication is just a band-aid and the problems will remain unresolved without a psychologist's involvement
  d) Because the physician is uncomfortable talking about sexual dysfunctions and would prefer to divert the conversation to a psychologist.

Question 2

Confidentiality and privileged communication can be distinguished in that only privileged communication legally protects individuals from:
 
  a) Being judged dangerous based on what they said.
  b) Unethical practices of the therapist.
  c) Having what they said revealed in court.
  d) Being sued by the therapist for their statements.
