Answer to Question 1

C
Further teaching is necessary if a student responded, Altruism.. While a long-standing tradition of
health care focused on altruism (the unselfish concern or dedication to the care of the sick), current
factors influencing health care reform are interest groups, political ideology, and policy entrepreneurs.

Answer to Question 2

A
Paul (1992) provided a rather interesting and somewhat amusing view of critical thinking as thinking
about your thinking while you're thinking in order to make your thinking better.. Other definitions
include the making sense of our world through examination of our thinking and the thinking of others
(questioning) and understanding of the argument, recognition of fallacies, and the recognition of
premises from conclusions.
