Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Quid pro quo sexual harassment involves the explicit offer of job-related benefits in
return for sexual favors. It is not defined by direct advances, attempting to initiate a
relationship, or suggestive language, though some or all of these activities may be present in the
exchange.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Burnout is accompanied by a decreased ability to function both on the job and in the
personal life. Burnout occurs more frequently in nurses who work in particularly stressful
areas of nursing, such as critical care, oncology, or burn units. It does not typically occur early
in a nurse's time in a particular setting and it can result in physical manifestations.
