ANS: B
Long-term prognosis is dependent on the patient's ability to cope with the stressors that are at the root of the emotional problems such as conflict with family. Verbalization of underly-ing stressors is not a guarantee that there will be progress towards managing them. Ac-ceptance of one's body and adequate calorie intake is possible only after coping skills are learned and used.
