Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Feedback:
Another way of thinking about ethnocentrism in nursing is that it can reflect an individual's, a group's, or an agency's cultural blindness. It can also reflect a lack of capacity to reach out effectively to minorities or culturally stigmatized groups.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
Culture is a belief system that the members of the culture hold, to varying degrees, consciously or unconsciously, as absolute truth. That belief system guides everyday behavior and makes it routine.
