Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Establishing trust in the nurse is a fundamental task of the orientation phase of the relation-ship; thus it is an appropriate outcome to identify. When trust is present, the patient is free to focus on the work and tasks of therapy. The ability to problem solve is an outcome appropri-ate for the working phase. Positive transference would not be an identified outcome. The ability to ask for help would not be an identified outcome for the orientation phase.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A key assumption of group therapy is that psychopathology has its source in disordered rela-tionships. It follows that individuals will behave in the group as they do in other settings, so group provides an opportunity to help individuals develop more functional relationships. Ability to relate is not relevant to group work. It is dealt with in one-to-one therapy. Hidden agenda is not a reason to offer group therapy. Cost-effectiveness is not an assumption about the reason group therapy is effective.
