Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Operational reasoning involves the identification of and discrimination among many alternatives and viewpoints. It focuses on the process (debating alternatives) rather than on the resolution. Nurses use operational reasoning to develop realistic, measurable health goals. Thus, operational reasoning takes abstract concepts and makes them focused, concrete, and, therefore, researchable.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Intuition is the revisiting of old knowledge accompanied by deep reflection.
