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.
