Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Stereotyping is assuming that all members of a culture or ethnic group are alike. Stereotyping that is unrelated to reality may be either positive or negative and is frequently an outcome of racism or discrimination. Cultural awareness is the conscious and informed recognition of the differences and similarities between varied cultural or ethnic groups. Ethnocentrism refers to an individual's belief that his or her culture's beliefs and values are superior to those of other cultures. Cultural sensitivity is the respect and appreciation for cultural behaviors based on an understanding of the other person's perspective.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Acculturation is the process of becoming a competent participant in the dominant culture. It is also referred to as assimilation, which is the integration of the cultural patterns of the dominant or host culture into the person's way of life. Spector suggests that it takes three generations for a family to become fully assimilated into the American culture. People are not automatically acculturated when they immigrate into the United States. The study of different cultures and subcultures with respect to nursing care is known as transcultural nursing.
