A new client describes having been in an outpatient group in which he reenacted troublesome incidents with his wife. Other clients served as alter egos. From this description, the nurse can document that the client had been engaged in:
 
  1. Role-playing
  2. Psychodrama
  3. Cognitive therapy
  4. Consensus building

Question 2

  1. (Name), do you want to complete your painting?
  2. What happened, (Name), don't you like to paint?
  3. Can you tell me what happened, (Name)?

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Psychodrama uses spontaneous dramas to act out emotional problems to promote health through development of new perceptions, behaviors, and connections with others. Others in the group take the role of significant others. 1. Role-playing does not use the technique of alter egos. 3. This is not a description of cognitive therapy. 4. Consensus building is not a form of therapy.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Art therapy is used to help resolve conflicts and promote self-awareness. The nurse should not comment on the quality of the art or the client's talents, but rather treat the project with respect and value. The work is simply each client's self-expression. The other options make judgments about the work.
