Answer to Question 1

If you guessed nurses then you are correct. Why? Nurses have high psychological demands combined with low decision latitude (low control) (Brown, James, & Mills, 2006) because they have less patient care decision-making authority than physicians. Physicians provide the patient care directives and nurses follow them rather than the other way around.

Answer to Question 2

Low decision latitude is a condition characterized by having insufficient skills or authority over one's job to autonomously complete the job tasks.
