Answer to Question 1

D
Universality refers to patients' realization that they are not alone and unique, and that others experience similar problems, feelings, and concerns. The remaining options do not reflect that sense of belonging.

Answer to Question 2

C
Goal-setting is most directly related to the technique of asking patients to decide on the type of change needed. The distracters demonstrate making observations and exploring.
