Judgment is the ability to assess and evaluate situations, make rational decisions, understand consequences of behavior, and take responsibility for actions. Judgment may be assessed by ask-ing a question that has a common-sense answer. Option 3 is an example of such a question. Op-tion 1 asks about motivation. Option 2 elicits historical information about the illness. Option 4 seeks information about insight.

Answer to Question 2
