Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Safety is the highest priority for this patient. Sleep deprivation causes psychomotor deficits. Driver drowsiness and fatigue lead to many automobile injuries and fatalities. The distracters are less likely to be associated with serious injury.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Sleep latency refers to the amount of time it takes a person to fall asleep. The distracters represent other phases of the sleep cycle.
