Rationale 5: The on-the-job instructor may or may not have experience as a clinical preceptor.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Normative-reeducative strategies focus on people's roles and relationships, perceptual orientations, and attitudes that influence their acceptance of change.
Rationale 2: Lippitt's phases of change are a seven-step process of change that involves participants in every step of the process.
Rationale 3: The assumption of the empirical-rational model is that people are rational and will follow their rational self-interest if that self-interest is made clear to them. In this instance, when the nurses have the knowledge to use the charting system and have a chance to try it, it will become clear that it is in their best interest to adopt the new system.
Rationale 4: Power-coercive strategies are based on the application of power by legitimate authority, economic sanctions, or political influence.
Global Rationale:
