Answer to Question 1

B
Based on the principles of stakeholder cooperation and emergent competition, nurse-run clinics are an example of increased economic value in nursing, because they fill an unmet need.
Setting one's own wage or salary is definitely a perk, but this does not provide evidence of economic value.
Economic competitiveness implies winners and losers and does not show system-wide value.
Nurse-run clinics are a source of new job opportunities for nursing, but this is not related to demonstrating economic value.

Answer to Question 2

A
Role segmentation means possessing clear boundaries between roles. One method might be to develop a ritual that physically and emotionally signifies to the nurse that he or she is at home and off work, such as changing clothes immediately when home. Distraction might be helpful, but it is only useful when the stress of role integration is apparent. Limiting work-related activities to once on days off only ensures the nurse really never has a true day off. Trying to forget work is a vague suggestion that has no concrete information to help the nurse operationalize that idea.
