Answer to Question 1

A
Cultural competence has been viewed as a strategy to combat health disparities. To increase cul-tural competence, nurses must continually engage in self-reflective activities that assess his or her world view and values about working with diverse individuals.

Answer to Question 2

D
Poverty is a strong and underlying current factor that affects all special groups. Other factors that may also influence disparities are: education, insurance status, segregation, immigration status, health behaviors and lifestyle choices, health care provider behavior, employment, and the nature and operation of the health system in the community.
