Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D
Blocks to communication include socializing, using clichs, and defending a situation. Use of silence and using open-ended questions are therapeutic communication techniques.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
To encourage a child to open the mouth for examination, the nurse can lightly brush the palate with a cotton swab, perform the examination in front of a mirror, let the child examine someone else's mouth first, and have the child breathe deeply and hold his or her breath. A tongue blade may elicit the gag reflex and should not be used.
