Answer to Question 1

A
A number of different groups and entities have identified characteristics of what constitutes a profession. Some of these characteristics are, according to Public Law 93-360 on Collective Bargaining: varied work environments, predominately intellectual work, requires discretion and judgment, and requires advanced instruction and study. Bixler and Bixler (1959) included autonomous practice, growing body of knowledge, education takes place in higher education institutions, and service above personal gain. Pavalko (1971) noted the following additions to the characteristics of a profession: work has social value, existence of a code of ethics, group identity and subculture, and autonomy.

Answer to Question 2

B
Rosemarie Rizzo Parse is the theorist responsible for Human Becoming theory. The key concepts of this theory are centered on three ideas: 1) structuring (cocreating reality through language of valuing and imaging), 2) cocreating (rhythmical patterns of relating), and 3) cotranscending (unique ways of originating the process of transforming). Florence Nightingale was responsible for Environmental theory (1859). Betty Neuman was responsible for Systems Model (1972/1995), and Hildegard Peplau was responsible for Interpersonal Process theory (1952).
