Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Interpersonal communication is one-to-one interaction between the nurse and another person that often occurs face to face. Transpersonal communication is interaction that occurs within a per-son's spiritual domain while intrapersonal communication, self-talk or self-instruction provides a mental rehearsal for difficult tasks or situations so individuals are able to deal with them more effectively. Nonverbal communication includes all five senses and everything that does not in-volve the spoken or written word.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
You determine the need for clarification by watching the listener for nonverbal cues that suggest confusion or misunderstanding. The remaining options are means of reinforcing or evaluating the listener's understanding of the information.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
