Answer to Question 1

D
In the concept of future orientation, people accept the idea that what is done now affects future health. This means that health screenings will help detect a problem today for potentially better health at a later time, days, weeks, or years ahead; it means that prevention may be worth pur-suing. The other actions do not show a future orientation.

Answer to Question 2

B
More-educated people often have greater access to wellness programs and preventive health op-tions because they tend to have more financial resources and health insurance coverage. Educa-tion may lead to an increased value on health and wellness. Occupations may or may not be physically demanding. Educated older adults may not manage stress more productively.
