Answer to Question 1

D
Although this patient might appear to be resistant to change or in denial, the patient is hesitant to implement a recommended change because of the perception of increased inconvenience and cost. This is not an example of high-level wellness.

Answer to Question 2

A
The health-belief model assumes that expectations direct behaviors that lead to fulfillment of the expectation. The high-level wellness model believes that health is influenced by the interaction among the individual, family, and community. Within the social learning model, it is assumed that beliefs strongly influence actions. The health promotion model assumes that health-promoting behavior is influenced by significant others who model the behavior, expect the behavior to occur, and facilitate the behavior.
