Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Schizophrenics tend to be challenged in social situations and avoid close relationships. Change is often very challenging. The other responses are common characteristics.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Hallucinations occur in a wide variety of diagnoses and are the result of brain dysfunction. These false sensory perceptions can affect any of the five senses. Illusions are different, as the stimulus is external.
