Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Options A, B, and D are tasks that could be part of an assignment and do not necessarily reflect
positive regard. Staying with a crying client offers support and shows positive regard.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The nurse is accountable for the relationship. Objectivity is threatened by strong positive or negative
feelings toward a client. Supervision is necessary to work through countertransference feelings.
