Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Culture influences beliefs about health and illness, including causes of illness. What the nurse might label as delusional might be a culturally determined belief about illness causation. The other assessments do not relate to the situation as directly.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Xenophobia is defined as a morbid fear of strangers. The xenophobic individual would not necessarily resist sharing food (fear of germs), riding in elevators (fear of closed spaces), or going out of doors (fear of open spaces).
