Question 1 of 5

A middle-aged adult with major depressive disorder suffers from psychomotor retardation, hypersomnia, and amotivation. Which intervention is likely to be most effective in returning this client to a normal level of functioning?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Teach the client to develop a plan for daily structured activities. This intervention is most effective because it addresses the symptoms presented by the client - psychomotor retardation, hypersomnia, and amotivation. Structured activities can help regulate the client's daily routine, combat inertia, and provide a sense of purpose and accomplishment. By setting specific tasks and goals, the client can gradually increase their level of activity and engagement, which can improve mood and motivation. Encouraging exercise (choice
A) may be beneficial, but developing a structured plan encompasses a broader approach to address all symptoms. Creating a list of pleasurable activities (choice
B) may not address the lack of motivation or structure. Providing education on sleep enhancement methods (choice
C) may not directly address psychomotor retardation and amotivation.
