Answer to Question 1

4
Anger and its expressions have a strong impact on a society.

Answer to Question 2

B
A matter-of-fact approach does not provide the patient with inadvertent positive reinforcement for self-injurious behavior. The goal of providing emotional consistency is supported by this approach. All other options provide positive reinforcement of the behavior. Discussion of feelings should occur apart from episodes of self-mutilating behavior and related nursing care. Sympathy is not therapeutic in general; overtures of kindness and concern can evoke fears of abandonment, and even when this is not a concern, can reinforce self-injurious behavior if they are provided during response to self-mutilating behavior.
