Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
The use of LPNs in more management positions is a paradigm shift. A shifting paradigm is a break with older ways of thinking. This shift changes the world of those who experience it, and it is the source of attitudes and behaviors.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Most nursing paradigms, or ways of seeing nursing practice, are based on learning through theories or clinical experiences. Culture is another paradigm that impacts nursing.
