Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3
Explanation: 3. The nurse can utilize experience as a population nurse to become a frontline policy maker by seeking appointment to a board that can develop and enforce health policy. This is the role of politician. The citizen role is one of an informed voter. The activist role addresses a role that seeks a definite outcome. The researcher role seeks to identify health policy issues, not policy formation or regulation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 2
