Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Although all the attitudes listed are components of critical thinking, the student is thinking independently. Nurses who are independent thinkers are careful not to let the status quo or a persuasive individual control their thinking.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
The student's first step when thinking critically about a situation is to identify the purpose or goal of the thinking. This helps to discipline thinking by directing all thoughts toward the goal.
