Answer to Question 1

D
Professional autonomy, or control over the practice environment, was identified as the strongest predictor of nurses' identification with the organization (Apker et al., 2003). Nurses who did not believe their jobs provided sufficient freedom were less likely to experience feelings of affiliation and loyalty toward their employers.

Answer to Question 2

C
Nursing workload includes direct nursing care activities such as assessment for signs of compli-cations, bathing, medication administration, and performing treatments and procedures. It also consists of indirect care activities such as calling doctors, ordering laboratory tests, and commu-nicating with physical and respiratory therapists.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
