Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Some research has shown that violent media exposure is linked to violent behavior. Included in media are computer games, which can also be violent. Younger children may not be able to distinguish between real and fantasy and may be overly influenced by violent images. No-tolerance policies can be helpful, as can a social environment in which children and their parents are held accountable legally. Offering martial arts classes may send the wrong message and would most likely not diminish the incidence of bullying.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Although all activities are good nursing interventions for specific communities, more than half of black women aged 45-64 years have hypertension, so a blood pressure screening at a predominantly black church could have the greatest impact.
