Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
The use of I messages is one of the rules of being assertive. These messages allow the nurse to take responsibility for personal feelings and share them with the appropriate person.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Assertive communication is not usually a natural behavior for nurses for two reasons. One reason is that the 100-year history of nursing has placed nurses in the role of being the handmaidens of physicians at times. The other reason is that most nurses are female and have not been socialized to be assertive.
