Brenda's teachers describe her as extremely conscientious. Brenda worries about her schoolwork being complete, accurate, and neatly prepared. Brenda also worries incessantly about her appearance, often stopping in the restroom to make sure that every hair is in place. When you ask Brenda about her friends, she confides that she thinks that many of them don't like her. And when she's not preoccupied about academic or social matters, Brenda worries about the murderers and terrorists who might be lurking around every corner. Such symptoms are most consistent with:
 
  a. depression
  b. bipolar disorder
  c. a conduct disorder
  d. an anxiety disorder

Question 2

Mr. Jones is concerned about one of his students, Todd, who has recently been identified as having a conduct disorder. Which one of the following is a good strategy for Mr. Jones to use with Todd?
 
  a. Mr. Jones avoids talking to Todd about his problems. That's what the school psychologist is for, and besides, Todd might become too reliant on Mr. Jones for help.
  b. Because Todd exhibits defiant behavior, Mr. Jones takes every opportunity to exert his own authority in the classroom. It's the only way he can keep control of the situation and not lose face with the other students.
  c. Mr. Jones sets limits on Todd's behavior. Under no circumstances will either physical or verbal aggression be acceptable in my classroom, he tells Todd.
  d. Mr. Jones encourages his other students to avoid interacting with Todd in order to reduce the number of fights Todd gets into in the classroom.
