Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Over the years of marriage, the significant other incorporates this devaluation into his or her own self-concept, negatively affecting body image. The way others view a person's body and the feedback offered are also influential on body image and self-concept. Role confusion is part of a developmental task (identity versus role confusion) for adolescents. Rigidity and yearning are not components of self-concept.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Negative nonverbal reactions by a nurse to a patient's scar or surgical alterations contribute to the patient's developing a negative body image. Nurses who have shocked or disgusted facial expressions contribute to patients' developing a negative body image. Expressions of distaste by the nurse will not facilitate recovery or ongoing communication, encourage physical activity, or promote acceptance of the colostomy bag by adopting a positive nickname.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
