Answer to Question 1

Answer: 1
Explanation: Medicalization served to diminish interest in the mind-body connection and pulled nursing away from its traditional interest in caring for the whole person. With medicalization, nursing training lost some of its focus on nursing as a singular discipline. Psychopathology rather than healing was emphasized with medicalization.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 1, 3, 4, 5
Explanation: William Stokes, a physician who consulted on moral therapy and wrote extensively on its practice, considered major diagnoses to include jealousy and pride, family affliction, pecuniary losses, and ill health. Binge-eating disorder is a diagnosis in the DSM-5.
