Answer to Question 1

B
Neuroleptic medication controls positive symptoms of schizophrenia. They are effective in addressing paranoia, hallucinations, delusions, and agitation characteristic of schizophrenia.

Answer to Question 2

A
The most appropriate outcome for the 16-year-old adolescent who was sexually abused as a child and is now having nightmares about the boys in her class would be to have her verbalize her anxiety and fear about sexual abuse. Verbalizing and acknowledging her feelings would be the first step in addressing the issue that is influencing her nightmares.
