3. Rehabilitation is considered a later step in the illness trajectory that follows symptoms, treatment and recovery.
4. Diagnosis occurs after symptoms appear, followed by treatment and rehabilitation.

Answer to Question 2

1
Explanation: 1. Ambivalence during the dependent-patient stage can create a barrier that could interfere with treatment, and with the patient's willingness to comply with the treatment regimen.
2. Further confirmation sought from family and friends is part of the assumption of the sick role stage, where ambivalence is not a factor.
3. Becoming aware that something is wrong is the symptom experience stage.
4. Ambivalence would not cause additional burdens to family and friends, as this is an issue for the patient.
