A raped client answers a nurse's questions in a monotone voice with single words, appears calm, and exhibits a blunt affect. How should the nurse interpret this client's responses?
 
  1. The client may be lying about the incident.
  2. The client may be experiencing a silent rape reaction.
  3. The client may be demonstrating a controlled response pattern.
  4. The client may be having a compounded rape reaction.

Rationale: This client is most likely demonstrating a controlled response pattern. In the controlled response pattern, the client's feelings are masked or hidden, and a calm, composed, or subdued affect is seen. In the expressed response pattern, feelings of fear, anger, and anxiety are expressed through crying sobbing, smiling, restlessness, and tension.
