Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
To ensure that nurses remain calm and objective, self-monitoring is essential. By practicing self-monitoring, nurses found that they were more effective in relationships with clients who have personality disorders and, as a result, were more helpful over time. Limit setting and boundary setting are also important but may not necessarily reduce the risk of countertransference .

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
Anxiolytics are used for both the acute and chronic anxiety seen in certain personality disorders such as avoidant personality disorder. Opioids, antidepressants, and neuroleptics are unlikely to treat the symptoms of anxiety.
