Correct Answer: A

Rationale: When a client with obsessive-compulsive disorder is interrupted while performing a ritual, the most likely reaction is anxiety. The compulsive ritual serves as a coping mechanism to control anxiety, so any disruption to this ritual can heighten the individual's anxiety levels. Hostility is typically part of the disorder itself and not a direct reaction to the interruption of the ritual. Aggression may occur only if anxiety escalates to a panic level, leading to overt anger expression. Withdrawal is not a common behavioral pattern associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder and is not a typical reaction to ritual interruption.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The client's statement expressing discomfort with the procedure indicates a potential unease with performing a manual examination of her genitals. It is not uncommon for individuals to feel uncomfortable or anxious about such intimate procedures. The nurse should explore this further with the client to address any concerns or fears. The option stating that the client is unduly fastidious lacks evidence and is not supported by the client's statement. The assumption that the client does not value having a baby is not warranted based on the given statement. While self-blame is a common emotional response in cases of infertility, the client's statement does not directly suggest this as the primary concern in this scenario.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Family practices.' In this scenario, the client's health practices are influenced by the fact that her family members never had annual gynecologic examinations, leading her to believe that such preventive care measures are unnecessary. This highlights the impact of familial behavior on an individual's perception of healthcare. Spiritual beliefs are not the primary factor at play here; they may affect the choice of medical treatment but not the decision to seek preventive care. Emotional factors like stress or fear could influence health practices, but there is no indication of this in the client's case. Cultural background would come into play if the client followed specific health beliefs or customary practices related to illness and health restoration.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is that amends must be made to each person who has been harmed. This principle is reflected in the eighth step of the 12 steps of AA, which involves making a list of all persons harmed and being willing to make amends to them. It is a fundamental principle of AA to address past harms and seek to rectify them. Choice A is incorrect because spouses attending Al-Anon meetings is not a basic principle of AA; it is a support group for family members of individuals with alcohol use disorder. Choice B is incorrect because while focusing on long-term goals can be beneficial, AA emphasizes taking one day at a time rather than committing to long-term goals. Choice D is incorrect because AA teaches that individuals struggling with alcoholism are powerless over their addiction and need to rely on a higher power rather than solely their willpower to overcome it.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The nurse would document that the client is experiencing a delusion of persecution. A delusion of persecution is a fixed and firm belief of being harassed, in danger, or at the mercy of others, as illustrated by 'The FBI is out to kill me.' Hallucinations are perceived experiences that occur without actual sensory stimulation. Error in judgment refers to poor decision-making, not a distortion of reality like a delusion. A self-accusatory delusion involves accepting blame for an act that was never committed or a feeling that was never acted on. Therefore, the correct choice is 'Delusion of persecution.'
