Answer to Question 1

a

a. Correct: Kanter (1974 ) coined the term reality shock to describe the reactions of nursing graduates to the realities of what was expected of them in their first job. Reality shock consists of four phrases that nurses move through over this transition period: honeymoon, shock, recovery, and resolution.
b. Incorrect: These do not reflect Kanter's four phases of reality shock during the transition of nursing graduates into their first nursing job.
c. Incorrect: These do not reflect Kanter's four phases of reality shock during the transition of nursing graduates into their first nursing job.
d. Incorrect: These do not reflect Kanter's four phases of reality shock during the transition of nursing graduates into their first nursing job.
