Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Potential sources of conflict include both parents working outside the home and sharing child rearing roles, in-laws, lower socioeconomic status, and relocation for the benefit of only one family member. All of the other listed situations describe transitions, but none has such as high chance of conflict as when in-laws move in close proximity.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Objective data for assessing family function include observation of family interactions and the behavior of members, as well as physical examination. Behavioral signs of family dysfunction include labile emotions, withdrawal, irritability, poor sleeping and eating, inability to concentrate, and dependency. Direct quotes are subjective data.
