Answer to Question 1

C
By assisting the patient to maintain personal appearance, the nurse is also assisting the patient to improve self-esteem. Being able to meet one's basic needs usually results in self-concept impairment. Self-esteem is generally decreased as a person becomes more dependent on others.

Answer to Question 2

C
Toddlers and preschoolers, according to Fowler's stages of faith, will imitate parental behaviors and attitudes about religion and spirituality.
