Answer to Question 1

D
Referent power refers to a circumstance in which a person, organization, or interest group en-genders admiration, loyalty, and emulation from others to such an extent that that person gains power to exert influence. Coercive power or reward power is based on the ability to provide or withhold from any person something of value to that person. Expert power refers to an individual possessing information that is valued by others. Legitimate power or positional power is derived from the position that one holds in an organization.

Answer to Question 2

B
In a technical report published by the Institute of Medicine (IOM), researchers identified key characteristics to enhance the services provided to individuals and communities continuously (Donaldson & Mohr, 2000). The eight common themes identified were integration of informa-tion, measurement, interdependence of care teams, supportiveness of the larger system, constancy of purpose, connection to community, investment in improvement, and alignment of role and training.
