Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The individual would be avoiding. Avoiding is defined as when an individual pursues neither his or her concerns nor another's concerns. Accommodating occurs when an individual neglects personal concerns to satisfy the concerns of another. Collaborating is when an individual at-tempts to work with others toward solutions that satisfy the goals of both parties. Compromising occurs when an individual attempts to find a mutually acceptable solution that partially satisfies both parties.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Supporters approve and support clients' actions. Affirming is based on an advocate's belief that a client's decision is consistent with the client's values and goals. Informing includes educating clients about the nature of their choices, the content of those choices, and the consequences to the client and is not a one-way activity. Amplifying occurs between the nurse and the client to assess the needs and demands that will eventually frame the client's decision.
