Answer to Question 1

D
Memory loss is associated with neurological complications of chronic alcoholism. In Korsakoff's syndrome, the client experiences profound loss of recent memory. Clients experience amnesia, dementia, and psychosis.

Answer to Question 2

D
The major characteristic of antipsychotic medications is that they produce an indifference to stressful stimuli. This is most likely due to the fact that all antipsychotics bind to the brain's dopamine receptors. However, although there is an indifference to both internal and external stimuli, the drugs have relatively little sedative effects and do not inhibit pain response.
