Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Lack of cooperation is an early covert sign of the potential for violent acting out. The other behaviors are seen later.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Use of a firm voice with erect posture and direct eye contact describes nonverbal behavior that is congruent with assertive verbalization. Using of a soft voice with shoulders relaxed and eyes down is passive submissive. Smiling while speaking and touching the person's arm with lowered eyes is passive submissive. Use of a loud voice, back stiff, and eyes glaring is consistent with aggressive behavior.
