Answer to Question 1

B
The adolescent whose childhood has been characterized by positive interactions with a loving an supportive family and community and who developed a strong sense of self-worth and self-esteem experiences the rapid period of transitions of adolescence with some confusion and self-doubt. Emotions go up and down like a roller coaster. These adolescents are faced with new challenges, and problems are stressors that must be met with new coping and problem-solving skills.

Answer to Question 2

C
Brief emergency intervention for acute psychological trauma does not result in social stigmatization as permanently traumatized. The intention, and in some cases the result, is to prevent the development of PTSD. When a support system is in place for the client to include education regarding PTSD, stress management advice, advice about seeking further treatment, and a telephone helpline, oftentimes additional treatment sessions are unneeded. However, when the session is limited to a single debriefing after the traumatic event, it is not only unhelpful, but may increase the incidence of PTSD.
