Answer to Question 1

A
Altruism occurs when not only recipients benefit from assistance, but the individual who is giving assistance also benefits through improvement in his own self-esteem. Feedback refers to receipt of information about how one is perceived by others. Expressiveness is a group change mechanism in which group members share positive and negative emotions, and communion occurs in a group when members feel a sense of belonging.

Answer to Question 2

A
These are characteristics of conduct disorders. Adjustment disorders are characterized by a psychological response from an identifiable stressor or group of stressors that causes significant emotional or behavioral symptoms that do not meet criteria for more specific disorders; impulse-control disorders are characterized by a failure to resist impulses or temptations that are harmful to the person or to others; and oppositional defiant disorder refers to a pattern of negative, aggressive behaviors that is seen most commonly in children who focus on authority figures.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
