Answer to Question 1

D
Evidence of cognitive domain learning would be the patient's ability to name and provide the purpose of medications or diagnostic tests. Evidence of affective domain learning would be that the patient accepts the diagnosis of a chronic illness. Evidence of learning in the psychomotor domain would be the patient's ability to perform a skill using physical movement and motor skills such as changing a dressing. There is not an intellectual domain of learning.

Answer to Question 2

D
Watson believed that learning is a result of conditioning and experiences. Pavlov believed that the learner is passive and controlled by the environment. Skinner believed that teaching is the deliberate manipulation of the environment. Thorndike believed that learning can be transferred from one situation to another and that the assessment of the learner's behavior is necessary.
