Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Lower socioeconomic position is an overriding determinant of health status. Hispanic subgroups vary in rates of disability. While urban older adults and those in the LGBT community have special needs, their health is not significantly worse than others as a whole.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Stigma is a common experience among LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) older adults, and the likelihood of this is greater than the likelihood of homelessness, unemployment, or infectious diseases.
