Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
Sensory overload occurs when a person is unable to process or manage the intensity or quantity of incoming sensory stimuli. Imparting information to a client may lead to sensory overload. Some examples include educating a client on a procedure, informing a client about a diagnosis, making requests of a client, or helping the client solve a problem.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Deprived environments can have negative effects on a person's sensoristasis. A person who is immobilized or isolated for any reason is deprived of the usual amount of stimulation and may show manifestations of sensory deprivation.
