Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Adolescents often reconsider their childlike concept of a spiritual power, and in the search for an identity, they may either question practices and values or find the spiritual power as the motiva-tion to seek a clearer meaning to life. Adolescents do not necessarily have a good concept of a supreme being. Adolescents do not necessarily fully accept the higher meaning of their faith. Older adults, not adolescents, often turn to important relationships and the giving of themselves to others as spiritual tasks.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Knowledge about spirituality begins with nurses' insight about their own spirituality. This self-exploration may occur through reading, religious involvement, or activities such as medita-tion to understand their own beliefs and values. Researching popular religions may add to the nurse's knowledge, but knowledge of spirituality begins with the nurse examining his or her own beliefs. It is essential for the nurse to be aware of his or her own beliefs so as to not impose them on others, and to be able to recognize and understand a client's spiritual needs. The nurse's knowledge about spirituality does not begin with the nurse sharing his or her faith with clients. Providing prayers and religious articles for clients may be an intervention to meet a client's spir-itual needs; however, it is not how the nurse's knowledge about spirituality begins.
