Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Through modeling, children learn of high or low value by observing parents, peers, and significant others. Modeling can thus lead to socially acceptable or unacceptable behaviors. Children whose caregivers use the moralizing mode of value transmission are taught a complete value system by parents or an institution (e.g., church or school) that allows little opportunity for them to weigh different values. Through rewarding and punishing, children are rewarded for demonstrating values held by parents and punished for demonstrating unacceptable values. Caregivers who follow the responsible-choice mode of value transmission encourage children to explore competing values and to weigh their consequences.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Nurses who feel uncomfortable gossiping with other nurses about patients realize that this behavior contradicts a basic respect for human dignity. This respect is a value that allows one to choose freely to believe in the worth and uniqueness of each individual.
