and Mental Illness
Multiple Choice
1. A nurse is assessing a client who is experiencing

of a beloved pet. The clients appetite, sleep patterns, and
daily routine have not changed. How should the nurse
interpret the clients behaviors?

form of depression.
2. The clients behaviors are extensive, which indicates the
presence of mental illness.
3. The clients behaviors are not congruent with cultural
norms.
4. The clients behaviors demonstrate no functional
impairment, indicating no mental illness.
ANSWER: 4
