Answer to Question 1

A
Balanced rest, activity, and diet will support medication management. Limited sunlight exposure is recommended to prevent photosensitivity. SLE often has kidney involvement, which would require reduction of sodium.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
The continuity theory suggests that personality and basic patterns of behavior remain unchanged as an individual ages. This is not a central component of the other noted theories.
