Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Status incongruence means that the status of the newly hired nurse is not congruent with being a dominant player in the group. Status in the group is determined by conforming to group norms that often include higher status for those who have worked in the group for a longer time.
Rationale 2: Isolates are generally those who have a higher external status than others in the group and who do not fit the group profile.
Rationale 3: Emergence is not a word used to describe these group dynamics.
Rationale 4: Deviation is not a word used to describe these group dynamics.
Global Rationale:

Global Rationale:
