Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
A final ethical pitfall involves the possibility of violating work setting (churchstate) boundaries. Professionals who work in civic settings should be sure that they understand and adhere to work-setting policies regarding the separation of church and state. Clinicians working in schools or other civic settings should avoid praying with children and teens, reading Scriptures with them, or passing out religious bibliotherapy literature (Richards and Bergin, 2005).

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
The client's statement suggests that there may be some profound regrets that he would like to get off his chest. Sympathy and advice would most likely be inappropriate during this dialogue. The patient may benefit from hope, but this is not a specific indication, given the content of his statement.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
