Question 1 of 5

The admitting nurse asks a client, 'Hi John, what would you like to talk about in group today?' The client replies, 'Hi john, what would you like to talk about in group today.' The nurse should recognize this response as an example of which of the following?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Echolalia. Echolalia is the repetition of words or phrases spoken by others. In this case, the client's response mirrors exactly what the nurse said, indicating a repetitive behavior. The other choices are incorrect because: B: Word salad is a jumble of unrelated words or phrases, which is not demonstrated in the client's response. C: Flight of ideas refers to a rapid, continuous flow of speech with abrupt changes in topic, which is not evident here. D: Clanging involves stringing together words based on sound, not meaning, which is not present in the client's response.
