Answer to Question 1

B, C, D, F
Nurses are susceptible to a number of different traps that can impede effective prioritization of tasks and patient care duties. Vacarro (2001) has identified five such traps of which nurses should be aware. They are: 1) doing what hits first; 2) taking the path of least resistance; 3) relying on misguided inspiration; 4) responding to the squeaky wheel (instead of not responding toor ignoringthe squeaky wheel); and 5) completing tasks by default (not relying on others to prioritize).

Answer to Question 2

b. Incorrect: This is not included in the five features of Diffusion of Innovations theory.
c. Incorrect: This is not included in the five features of Diffusion of Innovations theory.
d. Incorrect: This is not included in the five features of Diffusion of Innovations theory.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
