Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Violence prevention programs should begin in elementary schools. Children who exhibit aggressive behavior in elementary school are more likely to exhibit antisocial and violent behavior as adolescents and adults. Programs should teach stress management, conflict and anger resolution, and personal and self-esteem development. This program would be offered too late for children in grades 7 through 12, and should be offered to a larger audience than only those who knew the victim and assailant. Thus, the priority population would be the elementary school children.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Harm reduction remains controversial although some see it as a paradigm shift with the potential to significantly improve treatment results. Harm reduction is often the only option that will preserve a therapeutic relationship when people continue to use or drink problematically. Attempting the use of harm reduction is preferred over admitting the patient to an acute care hospital, ceasing to provide care, or having the patient admitted as a mental health client.
