Answer to Question 1

C
Leininger defines transcultural nursing as a comparative study of cultures to understand similarities (culture universal) and differences (culture-specific) across human groups. The goal of transcultural nursing is culturally congruent care, or care that fits a person's life patterns, values, and a set of meanings. Patterns and meanings are generated from people themselves rather than predetermined criteria. Culturally congruent care is sometimes different from the values and meanings of the professional health care system. To provide culturally congruent care, it is important for you to distinguish between disease and illness. Illness is the way that individuals and families react to disease, whereas disease is a malfunctioning of biological or psychological processes.

Answer to Question 2

B
Perfectionism is an overwhelming expectation of being able to get everything done. This can be a barrier to the effective use of time.
