Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Nurses should be aware that informal contacts are often as significant as formal contacts because
they occur during natural activities of daily and social living and are therefore based on reality.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Mixed messages involve the transmission of conflicting or incongruent messages by the speaker.
The client's verbal message that all was well in the relationship was modified by the nonverbal
behaviors denoting anxiety. Data are not present to support the choice of the verbal message being
clear, explicit, or inadequate.
