Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: Probability is the likelihood, expressed as a percentage, that an event will or will not occur.
Rationale 2: Probability analysis is a method of calculating expected risk; this is the method the nurse used to compare the two options.
Rationale 3: Objective probability is the likelihood that an event will or will not occur, based on facts and reliable information.
Rationale 4: Even though option A is more cost-effective, the manager believes option B to be in the best interest of the unit. Subjective probability is the likelihood that an event will or will not occur based on personal judgment and beliefs.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

1, 3, 4
Explanation: 1. Constructive criticism assists the nurse manager be construed as the team leader, as does
encouraging group discussions, and facilitating group processes. The nurse manager as team
leader would not settle all conflicts, but should be aware of most and get involved when
necessary. Finally, fostering interdependence is more appropriate for the team leader as it
creates cohesiveness among members.
