Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Reduction of stress related to information overload requires the development of information-receiving and information-sending skills. Information-sending skills include determining most common sources of useful data, labeling files and folders to which e-mail messages can be directed, deletion of e-mails, and focusing on the most important pieces. Information-sending skills include keeping e-mail messages short (and calling if the message needs to be long) and considering the most appropriate medium for messages (telephone, fax, face-to-face).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Change can lead to feelings of being overwhelmed and powerless, especially if complexity compression or rapid, intense changes have been involved.
