Answer to Question 1

D
Theorists in the human relations school emphasized the informal, rather than formal, aspects of organization social structure. Hawthorne experiments were influential in this school of thought.

The most common source of legal liability for nurses and nurse managers is a tort. Negligent acts or omissions (unintentional torts) and various intentional acts (intentional torts), such as invasion of privacy or assault and battery, commonly arise in clinical nursing practice (Aiken, 2004).
