Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Attention to feelings, signs and symptoms, and family history is common to both age groups. Attention to developmental milestones and stages is prioritized in the child psychiatric assessment.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Verbal and nonverbal communication is impaired in children with autism; therefore, a group modality would not be appropriate. Children with autism have difficulty with interpersonal interaction; thus, these activities would increase anxiety and acting-out behaviors. Having a playroom with climbing structures and rolling chairs would increase the child's risk for injury. Maintaining a routine and predictable environment would be therapeutic for the client with autism.
