Answer to Question 1

C
Feelings of empathy, concern, and understanding are helpful. Anger, on the other hand, may make
objectivity impossible.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, E
Rationale: Early psychosocial developmental history is less relevant to successful outcomes in the
community than the assessments listed in the other options. If a client is homeless or fears
homelessness, focusing on other treatment issues is impossible. Option B: Sufficient income for
basic needs and medication is necessary. Option C: Adequate support is a requisite to community
placement. Option D: This information has less bearing on the success of community treatment than
the issues related to daily living arrangements. Option E: Substance abuse undermines medication
effectiveness and interferes with community adjustment.
