Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
In the precontemplation stage, a person either doesn't see a health problem, even though it may be obvious to others, or doesn't have any intention of modifying it in the foreseeable future.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Pender's health promotion model serves as a guide for planning successful education with individuals and targeted high risk groups. A person's capacity to absorb and use health promotion information depends to a large degree on what the person believes about his or her health and the extent to which personal actions will influence their health. In social learning theory, motivation is a fundamental component of learning readiness. Motivation to change is a state of readiness that fluctuates. Healthy People 2010 represents the health promotion agenda for the nation.
