Answer to Question 1
ANS: A
Cultural proscriptions are beliefs, practices, and values of a group that tell women and children what they should not do. In many traditional cultures, women do not have permission, decision-making power, or means to access the health-care system. If the women from such a culture successfully negotiate their roles regarding health care, they can access the health-care system on their own. The ability to afford services is not related, although cultural proscriptions might forbid women from making such a transaction. If they follow their traditional roles or seek health care from family members, they have not demonstrated a successful negotiation of a new role.
