Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 4
Rationale: The diagnosis of catatonic disorder associated with another medical condition is made when the symptomatology is evidenced from medical history, physical examination, or laboratory findings to be directly attributable to the physiological consequences of a general medical condition. Types of medical conditions that have been associated with catatonic disorder include metabolic disorders (e.g., hepatic encephalopathy, hypo- and hyperthyroidism, hypo- and hyperadrenalism, and vitamin B12 deficiency) and neurological conditions (e.g., epilepsy, tumors, cerebrovascular disease, head trauma, and encephalitis). Hyperaphia is an excessive sensitivity to touch.

Answer to Question 2

D
The psychosocial (psychiatric) rehabilitation model of treatment focuses on wellness, wholeness, and the abilities of the client, and it encourages freedom of choice and self-direction.
