Answer to Question 1

B
Generation X members, born between 1965 and 1980, were the first generation of latchkey kids who had to be resourceful at an early age. They are skeptical of traditional practices and beliefs. They strive for a balanced life.

Answer to Question 2

D
Nursing outcome databases are critical for two reasons: 1) Nurses must be able to measure and document how nurses influence patient outcomes; and 2) the study of nursing-sensitive outcomes will allow comparison between interventional strategies and advance the science of nursing care delivery (Iowa Intervention Project, 1997).
