Answer to Question 1
A
To study the effects of an aerobic exercise training program on the feelings of depression in an HIV-positive population, researchers used a randomized controlled trial of a supervised, 12-week aerobic training program. At the end of the 12-week exercise intervention, the experimental group showed reductions in depressive symptoms.
Answer to Question 2
D
The emergency room physician who prescribed Valium for the client contributed to the woman's grief. A person will respond to the emotion of grief using the same coping strategies that she has used to deal with other, powerful emotions in the past. One learns how to grieve by learning how to understand and accept emotions, how to feel emotions, and how to use supportive persons to talk about feelings. The nurse, friend, and sister were all helpers because they allowed the woman to talk. The physician on the other hand only medicated the client.
