Answer to Question 1

A
A person returning to college after losing his job is dealing with two significant stressors simultaneously. Together, these stressors total more life change units than any of the single stressors cited in the other options.

Answer to Question 2

E
The student is happy and has an adequate self-concept. The student is reality oriented, works effectively, and has control over own behavior. Mental health does not mean that a person is happy all the time.
