Answer to Question 1

D
The Chen et al. study (2006) explored the impact of a 12-week cognitive-behavioral therapy group for clients diagnosed with depression. Their data suggested that the experimental group clients demonstrated improvements in areas of depression relief and enhancement of self-esteem. The improvements remained after 1 month following treatment. The data implied that such groups are potentially very useful for clients in outpatient settings who experience depression.

Answer to Question 2

A
The NIH is a reputable and accurate website for obtaining health-related information. The CDC is appropriate for information about communicable diseases. OSHA oversees workplace safety, and the FDA oversees food and drug standards.
