Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Of the choices given, health promotion activities would make the largest difference. Increased expenditures on acute care will not notably change the health of the population, whereas funding that addresses health promotion such as education and safe environments would improve the health of the aggregate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
One of the propositions of Milio's framework is that alteration in patterns of behavior resulting from decision making of a significant number of people in a population can result in social change. Some behaviors, such as tobacco use, have become difficult to maintain in many settings or situations in response to organizational and public policy mandates. Increasing taxation on unhealthy food choices may make it more difficult for community members to make these unhealthy choices.
