Answer to Question 1

C
Cultural and religious differences are an area that may complicate adjustment to marital sexual activities between an engaged couple. Because different cultures and religions have differing views on what constitutes normal sexual activity between two people, a couple who come from differing cultures may have very different expectations on what their sex life will be like. Cultural differences regarding what sexual acts are considered normal and what are considered taboo, norms on birth control methods and practices, even the amount of sexual activity one of the partners may have had before marriage may cause challenges during the marriage if not addressed beforehand.

Answer to Question 2

B
A psychiatric nurse would use a genogram of a family to assess the family's history and relationship patterns. The genogram is a graphic depiction of a family tree that records information about the family members and their relationships for at least three generations. The genogram helps the nurse keep the whole family in mind as a unit, even if the nurse is caring for one family member at a time.
