can anyone help me on one of the extended matching question that appear about psychotherapy?

scenario: young female with irresponsible alcoholic husband, attempted suicide, battered her baby.

options:
- morbid jealousy
- transferrence
- countertransferrence
- resistance
- acting out
- introjection
- dissociation
- conversion
- flight of health

questions:
1. forgot to attend follow up
2. forgot to paymonthly consultation fee
3. forgot she has beaten her baby
4. complain of bilateral arm pain

i am not sure where should i put the questions..
thank you so much!!😍
 
Hm. Sounds like a homework question! And I hate to be mean, but some of the answers are fairly obvious, if you look up their definitions. For instance, look up conversion disorder, or dissociative disorder. Once you have those two questions answered, consider what the common-sense answers might be to others...
 
the followings are my answer:

1. forgot to attend follow up - Resistance
2. forgot to paymonthly consultation fee - acting out
3. forgot she has beaten her baby - dissociation
4. complain of bilateral arm pain - conversion

but i don't really understand the difference between 1 and 2 and not sure about the answers
