Answer to Question 1

D
Adverse events associated with ECT treatment include prolonged periods of confusion or disorientation, recurrent nausea or headaches, and elevated blood pressure that do not remit after several hours following ECT treatment.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Culture within a family often determines the definition of family, the beliefs governing family relationships, the conflict and tensions present in the family and the responses (adaptive or maladaptive) to them, the norms of the family, how outside events are perceived and interpreted, and the type and frequency of family interventions that will be most effective. The educational level and careers that family members achieve or select are less closely linked to culture than the other options presented.
