Answer to Question 1

c

Answer to Question 2

Moral management was a broad treatment that included a patient's social, individual and occupational needs. The
moral and spiritual development of patients was a focus. More emphasis was placed on a patient's character than
on their disorder. Typical treatments were spiritual discussion and manual labor. It was surprisingly effective. It
was abandoned because of changing attitudes toward the mentally ill and the increasing size of hospitals. The
mental hygiene movement and advances in biomedical science also contributed to its decrease in popularity. The
focus on physical and biological explanations and care meant that other factors in a patient's life were considered
irrelevant.
