Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 3, 4
Rationale: Military children face unique challenges. They fear not being accepted, being behind academically, not making friends, and losing athletic standing as they move from one school to another. Fear of discrimination from new school faculty has not been shown as a realistic fear in this population.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: The diagnosis of SIPD is made when symptoms are directly attributable to substance intoxication or withdrawal. The symptoms are more excessive and more severe than those usually associated with the intoxication or withdrawal syndrome. Hallucinations and delusions are associated with both SIPD and BPD. Catatonic features may be associated with SIPD, whereas BPD has no catatonic features.
