Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Feedback:
The art of nursing is a craft and an ability to grasp meaning, establish a connection with clients, determine a course of action, and skillfully perform nursing activities. Given this way of thinking, the art of nursing is less a separate phenomenon or aspect and rather the means of carrying out the science of nursing in a skillful, knowledgeable, intelligent, and ethical manner.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Feedback:
Many aspects of mental health and illness are unobservable, so distinguishing what can be studied related to such questions is important. For example, scientific methodology cannot prove the existence of God, but the effects of spiritual beliefs on recovery from mental illness can be scientifically studied.
