A patient has sat in stony silence in the day room for 20 minutes after her appointment with her psychiatrist. She appears tense and vigilant.
 
  The nurse sees the patient abruptly stand up and pace back and forth across the day room, clenching and unclenching her fists. She then stops and stares intently into the face of the psychiatric technician seated at a table. The priority assessment that should be made is that the patient is: a. working off the energy of angry feelings.
  b. attempting to use relaxation strategies.
  c. exhibiting clues to potential aggression.
  d. trying to work through her anger.
