Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The correct response uses exploring, a therapeutic technique. The distracters give advice, a non-therapeutic technique.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Giving advice fosters dependence on the nurse and interferes with the patient's right to make personal decisions. It robs patients of the opportunity to weigh alternatives and develop problem-solving skills. Furthermore, it contributes to patient feelings of personal inadequacy. It also keeps the nurse in control and feeling powerful.
