Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Budek's 'You see dead people?' is restating (B), repeating Rommel's words to show listening and encourage elaboration. Reflecting (A) mirrors feelings (e.g., 'You're scared?'). Exploring (C) probes deeper (e.g., 'Tell me more'). Clarification (D) seeks meaning (e.g., 'What do you mean?'). Restating, common in schizophrenia care, validates without judgment, making B correct.

B's sleep-related drop is a consistent truth, making it correct based on circadian respiratory patterns.
