The statements that would lead the nurse to suspect that the client has a negative self-concept are:

  1. "I'm such a horrible person."
  2. "Who would want to marry me now the way I look?"
  3. "I feel like I'm so ugly."
  4. "What good am I?"

Explanation for each option:

  1. "I'm such a horrible person." - This statement indicates a negative self-assessment and a lack of self-worth, which are signs of a negative self-concept.

  2. "I like myself and my life." - This statement reflects a positive self-concept, as the client expresses satisfaction with themselves and their life. Therefore, it does not indicate a negative self-concept.

  3. "Who would want to marry me now the way I look?" - This statement suggests that the client has a poor body image and feels unworthy of love or companionship due to their appearance, which is indicative of a negative self-concept.

  4. "I feel like I'm so ugly." - This statement shows that the client has a negative perception of their physical appearance, which is a component of a negative self-concept.

  5. "What good am I?" - This statement reflects feelings of worthlessness and a lack of purpose, which are clear indicators of a negative self-concept.

In summary, the statements "I'm such a horrible person," "Who would want to marry me now the way I look?" "I feel like I'm so ugly," and "What good am I?" all suggest that the client has a negative self-concept.
