Answer to Question 1

A, C
When a nurse teaches about medications, he or she is using a cognitive approach. A core concept of cognitive theory relates to the mental process of thinking and reasoning.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
In a daily record of dysfunctional thoughts, clients (1) identify automatic thoughts and (2) generate a more rational response. In this way, the tool serves to help them (3) modify or make changes in their thinking. A daily record of dysfunctional thoughts does not eliminate the occurrence of irrational beliefs or monitor thoughts solely related to self-esteem.
