Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Executive functioning refers to monitoring and attending to group rules and procedures. Caring demonstrates expressions of kindness. Meaning attribution includes accepting of feelings, although emotional stimulation would reflect working communication skills.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
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 patient's talents, but rather treat the project with respect and value. The work is simply each patient's self-expression. The other options make judgments about the work or the patient's willingness to participate.
