Answer to Question 1

D
One of the most important factors in preventing recidivism is adequate community resources where clients receive support and educational and vocational opportunities. With the focus on the least restrictive environment, many chronically mentally ill clients now live in small, homelike, sheltered group settings within the community.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: In a classic study by Reichard, Livson, and Peterson, the personalities of older men were classified into five major categories according to their patterns of adjustment to aging. Rocking chair personalities are found in passive-dependent individuals who are content to lean on others for support, to disengage, and to let most of life's activities pass them by.
