Answer to Question 1

Ans: A, B, D
Feedback:
In Lewin's model of change, the change process can be visualized as three steps: unfreezing the status quo, changing or moving to a new state, and refreezing to sustain the change or changes made. Force field analysis is a tool used to identify forces that enforce the status quo, not to actually enforce the status quo. The purpose of using levers of change is to increase driving forces and/or to decrease restraining forcesleverage points identified in the force field analysis.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
Mainstream interventions effect change at the population or community level, as in this scenario. Upstream interventions effect change at the societal, environmental, or policy level. Downstream interventions effect change at the individual level. There is no sidestream system level.
