Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: The teen is anticipating disapproval by significant others/peers, which is of developmental importance to teenagers. The event has not yet occurred, so it cannot be a discrepancy between the self-view and actual behavior. Gaining or reinforcing respect is not the teen's issue. There is no failure to accomplish a goal.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: By asking the staff about the impact of these terms, the charge nurse is providing feedback to the staff and asking them to engage in critical thinking to improve the quality of care. Telling the staff that the terms are not appropriate to use or that by using them the staff need to reassess their reasons for working on the unit does not promote dialog or enhance problem solving. Assuming the reason for the use of the terms before engaging in a dialog with the staff closes off communication and does not enhance problem solving or feedback.
