Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The parietal lobe is responsible for associating and processing sensory information that allows for functions such as following directions on a map, reading a clock, dressing self, keeping appointments, and distinguishing right from left. Emotional expression is associated with frontal lobe function. Detecting auditory stimuli is a temporal lobe function. Receiving visual images is related to occipital lobe function.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, E
A decision tree enhances the person's ability to think through a problem without getting stuck in a pattern of feeling overwhelmed and therefore unable to determine ways to reduce the effect of the stressful situation. The decision tree provides individuals with opportunities to problem solve by breaking down a problem or a stressor into smaller increments. Defining a problem clearly and determining options for solving it can help a person to think about more than one way to work on the problem or stressor. The use of a decision tree will not remove all stress but rather empower the individual to strive to solve the problem causing the stress.
