Answer to Question 1

D
The theme of lack of trust in the patient by the family is frequently noted when the patient does provocative things such as going to the bathroom and remaining there after meals. The patient is unable to fathom the concern of the family about possible purging behaviors. The patient frequently shifts coalitions. The patient perceives positive messages as negative. The patient usually competes with the mother.

Answer to Question 2

C
Countertransference is the nurse's response to a patient that is based on the nurse's unconscious needs, conflicts, problems, or view of the world.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
