Sophie, an 80-year-old woman with several chronic medical conditions, was placed in a nursing home. At first, she was cheerful and active, but now she is withdrawn and depressed. This nursing home is for people with severe cognitive deficits.
 
  How would this situation be analyzed in the competence model of Lawton and Nahemow?
 
  a. This behavior is due to high personal competence and low environmental press.
  b. Although she feels competent, she is stressed because the nursing home is structured.
  c. Her ability to cope has been reduced because she is no longer mentally competent.
  d. Because her physical abilities are reduced, she can't get involved in activities.
