Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Factors that have negative effects on the mourning process include a high dependency on the deceased, ambivalence toward the deceased, a poor or absent support system, a high number of past losses or other recent losses, poor physical or mental health, and young age of the deceased. Data do not support the incorrect options.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Anger may protect the bereaved from facing the devastating reality of the loss. Anger expressed during mourning is not directed toward the nurse, personally, although accusations and blame may make him or her feel as though it is.
