A patient with a personality disorder has shared with staff that family members have acted cruelly while at the same time telling the family about receiving indifferent care from staff members.
 
  This behavior is identified as the patient's attempt to: a. learn how much acting out will be tolerated by the unit's staff.
  b. align family and staff to maximize efforts for patient behavioral change.
  c. seek a structured, therapeutic environment while internal controls are being developed.
  d. create family-staff conflict, thus diverting focus from the patient's need for self-examination.
