Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The patient acquired knowledge, which is cognitive. Cognitive learning includes all intellectual skills and requires thinking. In the hierarchy of cognitive behaviors, the simplest behavior is acquiring knowledge. Kinesthetic is a type of learner who learns best with a hands-on approach. Affective learning deals with expression of feelings and development of attitudes, beliefs, or values. Psychomotor learning involves acquiring skills that require integration of mental and physical activities, such as the ability to walk or use an eating utensil.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
If you still do not understand, ask again is part of the S portion of the Speak Up Initiatives. Speak up if you have questions or concerns. You (the patient) are the center of the health care team, not the nurse. Ask a trusted family member or friend to be your advocate (advisor or supporter), not a nurse. Medication errors are the most common health care mistakes, not inappropriate medical tests.
