Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Psychostimulants, such as methylphenidate and amphetamines, provide the basis for treatment of both adult and childhood ADHD. They are the most commonly used medications; therefore the nurse could expect the health care provider to prescribe a drug in this class. None of the other drugs listed as options have proven useful in the treatment of ADHD.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A person with a sexual fetish finds it necessary to have some external object present, in fantasy or in reality, to be sexually satisfied. Exhibitionism refers to exposing one's genitalia publicly. Voyeurism refers to viewing others in intimate situations. Pedophilia refers to the preference for having sexual relations with a child.
