Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4

This question represents the use of a technical term, which is a barrier to communication. This question does not represent the other examples of barriers to communication.

A non-therapeutic interaction occurs when the nurse unknowingly hinders the flow of information during the health history process. This is not an example of a therapeutic interaction, false assurance, or cross-examination.
