Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
As a general rule, eating disorders are associated with anxiety around meal time, so understanding thoughts and feelings associated with food is important for treatment. The other interventions may be needed for some patients at times, but not for all.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Anorexic patients are generally severely underweight, can be male or female, anxious, and perfectionistic. They would not be overweight.
