Answer to Question 1

B
It is important for nurses to assess the reading and comprehension abilities of patients before using printed materials. It is a common mistake to equate the highest educational level achieved with reading level. Typically, individuals read at three to five grade levels lower than their achieved educational level.

Answer to Question 2

C
Each individual has the capacity to learn, however learning ability varies from person to person and is situational. The pace of learning varies with each person. Learning is a continuous process and occurs in formal and informal settings. Learning is an individualized process. Motivation and readiness are necessary for learning to occur.
