Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
Nurses must develop skill in asking questions that define cultural variables with regard to communication, touch, proximity to others, family roles, and social roles. Sample questions include How would you describe your role in your family?

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Perhaps the most common method to assess attention and the ability to concentrate is testing of calculation by adding or subtracting several items. An example is the serial 7s test, in which examiners ask clients to start from 100 and recite the subtraction of 7s sequentially. The other listed tasks do not accurately assess a client's attention or concentration.
