    According to Garland, Jones, and Kolodny, the five stages of groups, in order, are:

    • Preaffiliation, Intimacy, Power and Control, Separation, Differentiation

    • Preaffiliation, Power and Control, Intimacy, Differentiation, Separation

    • Intimacy, Preaffiliation, Power and Control, Separation, Differentiation

    • Preaffiliation, Intimacy, Power and Control, Differentiation, Separation

    Correct Answer
    A. Preaffiliation, Power and Control, Intimacy, Differentiation, Separation
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Preaffiliation, Power and Control, Intimacy, Differentiation, Separation. This order suggests that the first stage is preaffiliation, where group members come together and establish initial connections. Next is the power and control stage, where members establish roles and hierarchies within the group. After that is the intimacy stage, where trust and close relationships are developed. Following that is the differentiation stage, where individual identities within the group become more distinct. Finally, the separation stage occurs, where the group disbands or transitions into a new phase.

    Clients most receptive to change in psychotherapy tend to be...

    • Slightly anxious

    • Highly anxious

    • Calm

    • Depressed

    Correct Answer
    A. Slightly anxious
    Explanation
    Clients who are slightly anxious are more likely to be receptive to change in psychotherapy because they are already aware of their anxiety and are motivated to address it. Their level of anxiety may be manageable, allowing them to engage in the therapeutic process and be open to exploring new ways of thinking and behaving. Highly anxious clients may be too overwhelmed to fully engage in therapy, while calm clients may not feel the need for change. Depressed clients may lack the energy and motivation to actively participate in therapy.

    • Precontemplative

    • Contemplative

    • Action

    • Maintenence

    Correct Answer
    A. Contemplative
    Explanation
    According to the Stages of Change model, clients who are ambivalent about change are in the contemplative stage. This stage is characterized by individuals acknowledging the need for change and actively considering the pros and cons of making a change. They may be weighing the benefits and drawbacks of changing their behavior and are more open to exploring different options and strategies for change. In this stage, individuals are often seeking information and support to help them make a decision about whether or not to change.

    Which is not an example of ethical note keeping?

    • Record no more than is essential to the functions of the agency

    • Omit details of clients' intimate lives from case records

    • Include verbatim or process recordings in case files

    • Employ private and soundproof dictation facilities

    Correct Answer
    A. Include verbatim or process recordings in case files
    Explanation
    Including verbatim or process recordings in case files is not an example of ethical note keeping because it violates the principle of confidentiality. Verbatim or process recordings may contain sensitive information that should not be included in case files to protect the privacy and confidentiality of clients. Ethical note keeping involves recording only essential information for the agency's functions and omitting intimate details of clients' lives from case records. Employing private and soundproof dictation facilities can also ensure the privacy and confidentiality of client information.
