Answer to Question 1

B
Locus of control refers to an individual's sense of control over events and situations that effect their life. Self-responsibility occurs when an individual enters into an active partnership with their primary health care provider. Outcome expectations are beliefs about whether behavior will produce desired results. Efficacy expectations are beliefs the person has about his or her own ability to perform the behavior.

Answer to Question 2

A
The last step in the ethical decision-making model is evaluation. In this step, the outcome of moral actions is assessed by asking the questions Were the actions ethical? and What were the consequences?
