Answer to Question 1

C
A person's belief system, worldview, religion, or spirituality can have a positive or negative effect on mental health. Belief systems play a vital role in determining whether a particular explanation and associated treatment plan will have meaning for the patient and others in the patient's social network. Declaring that something is routine/mandatory does not address the patient's question nor does ensuring confidentiality. Addressing religious beliefs is only a partial focus of the interview process.

Answer to Question 2

B
Martha Rogers viewed humans as irreducible, indivisible, pandimensional energy fields bearing recognizable patterns and are greater than the apparent sum of their physical parts. In Roger's view, humans are in constant interaction with the environment.
