Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Professional socialization is the process and effect of repetitive, everyday experiences in which knowledge, skills, behaviors, norms, and values are reinforced through interaction with others. Interaction with peers can have both negative and positive effects and contribute to either a positive or negative socialization process. Socialization does not happen through one salient event but rather through continuous exposure.

Answer to Question 2

C
Through the political process, individuals, groups, agencies, and government entities have a voice in developing our health care system via regulations, establishing outcomes, and developing policy.
Lobbyists can be an effective tool, but they are expensive, and in the case of issues that are very popular with the general public, they may not be necessary at all.
Everyone has a voice in our national health care system.
There are multiple avenues for influencing health care policy; voting is one but is not necessarily the primary method.
