Answer to Question 1

C
Group content refers to the specific problems, topics, or conditions addressed by the group as a whole. It is one of the two components of group dynamics or the underlying forces that work to produce behavior patterns within groups. The other component of group dynamics is group process, which refers to the interaction (verbal and nonverbal) between the group members.

Answer to Question 2

D
Most suicidal patients have some ambivalence. In this case the patient is most likely experiencing both a need to die and a desire to live. With this strategy the nurse is appealing to the patient's desire to survive by procuring support through the intervention of the other person.
