Answer to Question 1

D
Stress release activities such as exercise, jogging, and yoga are considered physical coping mechanisms. Spiritual coping mechanisms include prayer, faith, and rituals. Emotional coping mechanisms consist of crying, talking, and defense mechanisms. Intellectual coping mechanisms are observed when an individual changes his or her perceptions of a threat to make it less meaningful.

Answer to Question 2

D
The ability of the patient to get to the clinic is of paramount importance to the success of the plan. The depot medication relieves the patient of the necessity to take medication daily, but if he or she does not receive the injection at 3-week intervals, nonadherence will again be the issue. Attitude toward the patient, trusting relationships, and nutrition are important but not fundamental to this particular problem.
