Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The genogram is an effective technique for assessing biological family risks. Economic risk is de-termined by the relationship between family financial resources and the demands on those re-sources. An example of social risk would be living in high-crime neighborhoods or in communi-ties without adequate health resources. An ecomap provides information useful in assessing a family's social risks. Biological risk considers risk for development of major illnesses or condi-tions and may be assessed through a genogram. Lifestyle risk relates to personal health habits.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
A nursing asking a family about financial resources is an example of assessing their economic risks. Economic risk is determined by the relationship between family financial resources and the demands on those resources. An example of social risk would be living in high-crime neighbor-hoods or in communities without adequate health resources. Biological risk considers risk for de-velopment of major illnesses or conditions and may be assessed through a genogram. Lifestyle risk relates to personal health habits.
