Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Schizophrenics are often unable to think abstractly and tend to make literal interpretations of their environment. This is not normally a characteristic of the other conditions.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Tactile hallucinations involve bizarre or unusual perceptions of something touching the skin. Responses C and D are not types of hallucinations. Visual hallucinations are false visual perceptions.
