Answer to Question 1

D
Ineffective coping is least likely to have relevance when sexual functioning is the problem. This
diagnosis is more related to the general ability of the individual to function effectively than to sexual
functioning.

Answer to Question 2

D
Manipulation is an example of dysfunctional communication. Manipulation refers to controlling by
being artful rather than honest. Playing the part of the sweet little girl to gain one's goal is
dysfunctional. Openly and clearly asking for what is wanted is a more functional communication
pattern. Option A: Placating is a way of keeping peace. Option B: Distraction refers to the
introduction of irrelevant details into problematic issues. Option C: Blaming serves the purpose of
keeping the focus away from the self.
