Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
The family developmental and life cycle theory focuses on common tasks of family life and pro-vides a longitudinal view of the family life cycle. The family systems theory views the family as a whole with boundaries that are affected by the environment. The bioecological systems theory describes how environments and systems outside of the family influence the development of a child over time. In the capacity building model, nurses assume that the family has the most knowledge about how their health issues affect the family, supports family decision making, empowers the family to act, and facilitates action for and with the family.
