Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Female sexual interest/arousal disorder is characterized by a reduced or absent frequency or intensity of interest or pleasure in sexual activity. Senate focus exercises are highly structured touching activities designed to help overcome performance anxiety and increase comfort with physical intimacy. The expected outcome of senate focus exercises is to reduce goal-oriented demands of intercourse. The reduction in demands reduces performance pressures and anxiety associated with possible failure.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: The nurse should determine that altered self-esteem and self-deprecating statements would generate the outcome to list personal strengths by the end of day one. Self-care deficit, disturbed body image, and risk for disturbed self-concept would generate specific outcomes in accordance with specific needs and goals. The self-care deficit and risk for disturbed self-concept nursing diagnoses are incorrectly written.
