Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Using symbols and images with which the client is familiar helps overcome the barriers of low literacy. The client with low literacy is not necessarily hard of hearing. Personalizing speech by using first name and using touch with speech do not help with understanding.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Bandura considers learning to be a social process. He identified three sets of motivating factors that promote the learning necessary to achieve a predetermined goal: (1) physical motivators, (2) social incentives, and (3) cognitive motivators. Your cardiac studies reveal an enlarged heart. This is a sign of cardiac problems.; I know you love to eat, but your current lifestyle is not conducive to good health.; and Can you remember what it was like to get up and go to work every day? Your buddies miss you. are interventions used with the transtheoretical model of change.
