Answer to Question 1

C
A nurse epidemiologist constructs an ecomap of each family in his caseload as one means of examining the families as components of society. In construction of an ecomap, the nurse epidemiologist would put the immediate family in the center of a circle. The significant individuals, organizations, or agencies with which the family members interact are put in circles surrounding the center circle, which represents the family.

Answer to Question 2

B
Instead of thinking that older adults will isolate and reduce socialization, the disengagement theory postulates that active individuals will remain active.
