Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: The nurse should recognize that this client is exhibiting an expressed response pattern. In the expressed response pattern, feelings of fear, anger, and anxiety are expressed through crying, sobbing, smiling, restlessness, and tension. In the controlled response pattern, the client's feelings are masked or hidden, and a calm, composed, or subdued affect is seen.

Answer to Question 2

D
SSRIs are the most widely prescribed antidepressants now because of their low incidence of side effects. MAOIs are the last group of choice because of their severe and potentially fatal side effects.
