Answer to Question 1

Answer: 2
Explanation: Sleep disorders can cause impairment to cognitive function, an alteration of the psychological domain. Immune function lies in the biological domain. Decreased enjoyment in social activities is part of the spiritual domain in that it can result in a loss of connections. Inability to perform work tasks falls under the sociocultural domain.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
Explanation: Disruption to the patient's autonomy and employment impact the patient's psychological and social wellness domains. Narcolepsy, because it involves sleep attacks, sleep paralysis, and can induce hallucinations, is likely the most disruptive to a patient's life. Narcolepsy can result in loss of the ability to drive or hold employment. The other disorders, depending on their severity, can certainly cause significant alterations in function; however, theses conditions are not as likely to have the same impact on autonomy and employment.
