Answer to Question 1

B
If separation anxiety (a child's fear of being apart from his parents) lasts longer than a few weeks, it is likely that there is a problem, and treatment should be sought. High levels of anxiety in children sometimes result in obsessive-compulsive behaviors.

Answer to Question 2

B
Many people from Central American cultures express distress in somatic terms. The other options are not specific to this patient's cultural background and are not more likely to be observed in persons from Central America.

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
