Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who screams, 'I can read your minds!' The nurse should identify this finding as a manifestation of which of the following personality disorders?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Schizotypal personality disorder. This disorder is characterized by eccentric behavior, odd beliefs, and unusual perceptions. The client's claim of being able to read minds aligns with the belief in special powers or abilities often seen in individuals with schizotypal personality disorder. Paranoia, as in choice A, typically involves suspiciousness and mistrust of others, not claims of supernatural abilities. Avoidant personality disorder (
C) is characterized by social inhibition and feelings of inadequacy, not delusional beliefs. Antisocial personality disorder (
