Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
: Roy identifies four adaptive modes, or ways in which a person adapts through: (1)
physiologic needs, (2) self-concept, (3) role function, and (4) interdependence relations.
Nutrition, spirituality, and genetic makeup are not discrete concepts within this theory.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
One of the four major positions of the ANA Position Paper on Educational
Preparation is that education for assistants in the health service occupations should be short,
intensive preservice programs in vocational education institutions, rather than on-the-job
training programs. It also states that the education of all those who are licensed to practice
nursing should take place in institutions of higher education, not in hospitals. The paper
specifies an associate degree as the minimum for technical nursing and a baccalaureate degree
for professional nursing.
