Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Mastrian, McGonigle, and Farcus (2012) elaborated on the basic principles that apply nursing ethics to the use of information technologies in health care. The concepts of autonomy, empowerment, accountability, and respect for the individual hold true for the practice of nursing informatics. Free will, diversity, and remembering are not considered ethical concepts.
