Question 1 of 5
A nurse is interviewing a client who has a substance use disorder. Which of the following client behaviors indicates that the nurse has successfully evoked the client's motivation?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C because the client reporting that having family support is the reason for their confidence in changing indicates readiness and motivation for change. This behavior aligns with the stages of change model, where acknowledging the importance of support is a key factor in progressing towards behavioral change.
Choices A and B are related to gathering information and reflecting on important relationships, but they do not specifically indicate motivation for change.
