Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

Rogers defines diffusion as the process by which an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among the members of a social system. There are three phases of the theory; invention (collecting of information), diffusion (communicating information to others), and consequences (adoption or rejection of the change). Lewin's force field theory covered driving forces and restraining forces. Lippitt expanded Lewin's theory and focused more on what the change agent must do rather than on the evolution of the change.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Rationing of health care can be a response to an imbalance of supply and demand. No country can afford to provide unlimited amounts of health services to everyone; and each must decide on a mechanism to ration, or limit access to, healthcare services. National health insurance plans are usually instituted as a program of HYPERLINK http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_reform o Healthcare reform healthcare reform. Insurance rates are not a result of supply and demand but a result of claims and claim adjustments. Customer satisfaction is not regulated by supply and demand for health care.
