Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D, E
Feedback
Correct A number of factors influence learning at any age. One of the most
significant considerations is developmental level. Teenage parents often
have very different concerns and learn in a different way than older
parents. Often grandparents are also involved in the rearing of these
children and must be able to review and understand the material. There is a
wealth of new information that may not have been available when they
became parents.
Incorrect All answers are correct.

Answer to Question 2

B

Feedback
A The health care team has a duty to provide proper information to the patient, in-cluding information related to STIs.
B It is important to inform the woman about STIs and the risks involved with HPV.
C HPV and HIV are both viruses that can be transmitted sexually, but they are not the same virus.
D The onset of HPV can be insidious. Often STIs go unnoticed. Abnormal bleed-ing frequently is the initial symptom. The patient may have had HPV before her current boyfriend. You cannot make any deductions from this limited informa-tion.
