Answer to Question 1

B, C, D, F, G
Sundown syndrome is associated with physical and social stressors including the decrease of visual and social cues. Interventions include meeting the client's basic needs and maintaining a consistent routine without abrupt changes such as decreasing lighting, withdrawing companionship, and changing or increasing stimulation.

Answer to Question 2

C
Constructive, or adaptive, coping mechanisms are effective because they deal with the problem to attempt to solve it and in turn reduce stress. Defensive and maladaptive mechanisms do not deal with the problem effectively. Individual coping mechanisms may or may not be effective.
