Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Feedback:
The most appropriate first step to take would be to explore current programs to prevent bullying and youth violence. Many of the programs developed to prevent face-to-face aggression address topics such as school climate and peer influences that are likely to be important for prevention of electronic aggression. By researching and perhaps adopting an existing program, the nurse will not have to develop a program from scratch. Developing rules for acceptable and safe use of all electronic media for all students is not likely to be effective because there would be no way to enforce them. This would be a more appropriate action for parents and caregivers. Banning all use of the Internet at all schools would be impractical, as the Internet is increasingly being incorporated into learning, and impossible to enforce. Actively monitoring students' social media postings would be impractical, as no one would have time for this, and cyber bullying can occur on many different sites and devices.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, D, E
Feedback:
Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey risk behavior categories include the following: unintentional injury, violence, tobacco use, alcohol use, drug use, sexual behaviors, unhealthy dietary behaviors, and physical inactivity. Sports-related trauma and sleep deprivation are not risk behavior categories.
