Answer to Question 1

2,5
Rationale: Family members appear to understand and respect individual boundaries. Problems in family communication patterns are less likely to exist if family members appear to understand and respect individual boundaries.

Answer to Question 2

1

Broadly defined, the significant other can be a spouse, child, boss, landlord, friend, nurse, or other health care worker. The client's negative interpersonal relationship with her stepfather influenced her suicidal behavior.
