Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Role is defined as a traditional pattern of behavior and self-expression performed by or expected of an individual within a given society. People develop social and professional roles throughout life. Some are conferred at birth (ascribed roles) and some are attained (acquired roles) during a lifetime. Work role relationships have structural componentsfor example, direct reports, student, nursing, and interdisciplinary professional. Other role relationships are collegial, based on friendship or common interests. Personal role performance standards reflect personal, social, cultural, gender, institutional, and family expectations. Standards for role performance tend to mirror differentiated practice roles, as supported by education, professional licensure, and certifications. Role performance standards are also influenced by institutional norms and may vary depending on the work environment. Features of professional role relationships are recognizable through differences in work responsibilities, cooperative activities, education, and social affiliations. Stronger personal and professional role expectations are held for those holding public trust roles, such as elected political and religious leaders, health care professionals, and teachers.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Eric Lindemann pioneered the concepts of grief work based on interviews with bereaved persons suffering a sudden tragic loss. He described patterns of grief and the physical and emotional changes that accompany significant losses. Lindemann observed that grief can occur immediately after a loss, or it can be delayed. When symptoms of grief are exaggerated or absent, it is considered pathologic or complicated grief. People experiencing complicated grief may require psychologic treatment to resolve their grief and move into life again. The pilot is talking about the death; there is no evidence symptoms of grief are absent. Anniversaries will often trigger memories. Children often show regressive behavior, anger, or fear in response to the loss of a parent.
