Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Northern European Americans, especially those who achieve middle-class socioeconomic status, place the most value on preventative medicine and primary health care. This value is most likely related to this group's educational level and financial capability. Many members of the Native American, Latino American, and African American subgroups value folk medicine practices.

ANS: C
Northern European American values, such as punctuality, hard work, and acquisition of material possessions, may place this group at risk for stress-related disorders when individuals struggle to meet societal demands.
