Answer to Question 1

Talcott Parsons analyzed the sick role and pointed out that it has four elements: (1) you are not held responsible for being sick; (2) you are exempt from your normal responsibilities; (3) you do not like the role; and (4) you will get competent help so you can return to your routines.

In time order, the five stages that Kbler-Ross identified are denial, anger, negotiation, depression, and acceptance.
