Answer to Question 1

C
Patients with mania often have unattainable goals and grandiose self-appraisals. Identifying realistic goals and self-appraisals indicates appropriate emotional responsiveness.

Answer to Question 2

D
Contrary to some thinking, if a person says no, the partner is responsible for respecting and complying with the request. Violence counseling is appropriate for both individuals in order to stress the importance of communication and respect between sexual partners.
