Answer to Question 1

C
Realizing that one is not alone and that others share one's problems and feelings is called
universality. Option A: Ventilation refers to expressing emotions. Option B: Altruism refers to
learning that one can be of help to others. Option D: Group cohesiveness refers to the degree of
esprit de corps of the group.

Answer to Question 2

C
Nurses are encouraged to tell bereaved clients that telling the personal story of loss as many times as
needed is acceptable and healthy because repetition is a helpful and necessary part of grieving.
Options A and B would not be helpful because they limit the expression of feelings. Option D is not
a true or relevant statement.
