Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A program objective needs a strong, action-oriented verb, a statement of a single purpose, a statement of a single result, and a time frame for achieving the expected resultTo decrease the incidence of early childhood disease in Center County by providing immunization clinics in all schools between August and December of 2007. To provide condoms to sexually active teenag-ers in the local high school does not include the statement of a result of this action or a time frame. To increase by 25 the number of school-age children wearing seat belts does not have a time frame for achieving the expected result. To provide free diabetic screening every other month for 2 years does not include the statement of a single result of this action or a specific time frame.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
A preactive approach projects a future need. Identifying the need for more diabetes health edu-cators based on the projected incidence of diabetes is an example of the preactive approach. The inactive approach defines the problem based on the existing health state of the population to be served. A reactive approach defines the problem based on past needs. An interactive approach describes the problem using past and present data to project future population needs.
