Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Transference or parataxic distortion occurs when a client exhibits the same attitudes and behaviors with a caregiver as with a significant, seemingly similar person in the client's life.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
When communicating, it is important to make an observation and then seek clarification and encourage the client to explore his or her behavior. This is more conducive to therapeutic communication than making an assumption about a client's actions or motives or explicitly attributing actions to delusions or hallucinations.
