Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, C
Formal group roles include the leader and each member. Coordinator and information seeker, which are task roles, and harmonizer, which is a maintenance role, are considered informal roles.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B
In the beginning stage of development, the nurse acknowledges each member; constructs a working environment; develops rapport with the members; begins to build a therapeutic relationship; and clarifies outcomes, processes, and skills related to the group's purpose. Members also begin to test whether they can trust one another and the leader. Working to develop norms, promoting sharing of feelings, and facilitating communication occur during the working phase.
