Echolalia is what type of symptom of Schizophrenia?

A. Maintain reality through frequent contact: Helping the client stay oriented and distinguishing delusions from reality is important in schizophrenia care. However, this can only be effectively implemented after ensuring the client is safe and not experiencing acute agitation that could escalate into harm to self or others.

B. Assess community support systems: Evaluating long-term support systems is a vital part of discharge planning and continuity of care. While important, it is not the immediate priority during initial client assessment, especially if the client is showing signs of acute psychosis or agitation.

C. Encourage client to participate in the treatment milieu: Social engagement in the therapeutic environment helps reduce isolation and promotes recovery. However, this intervention is only effective after the nurse ensures that the client is calm, stable, and safe to interact with others.

D. Observe for signs of fear or agitation: This is the priority because safety and stabilization are the first concerns in schizophrenia care. Fear or agitation can quickly escalate to aggression or self-harm, so early observation allows the nurse to intervene promptly and prevent harm while planning further care.

A. Superficial friendliness toward others: Clients with antisocial personality disorder often display superficial charm to manipulate or gain the trust of others. This friendliness is not genuine but serves their own interests, making it a common behavior.

B. Withdrawal from social activities: Social withdrawal is more typical of schizoid or avoidant personality disorders. Clients with antisocial traits are usually socially active but use interactions manipulatively rather than avoiding them.

C. Seeking special privileges: These clients frequently disregard rules and expect special treatment. Seeking privileges aligns with their manipulative and self-serving behavior patterns.

D. Exploitation of other clients: Exploitation is a hallmark feature of antisocial personality disorder, as individuals often take advantage of others without guilt or remorse. This behavior demonstrates their lack of empathy and disregard for others’ rights.

E. Compliance with expectations: Consistent compliance is not typical in antisocial personality disorder. Instead, these clients resist authority, break rules, and manipulate situations rather than conforming to expectations.
