Answer to Question 1

A
The nursing instructor should evaluate that more instruction is needed if a student states that the color red is associated with death and bad luck. Chinese Americans consider the color white as associated with death and both the colors black and white are considered bad luck. Red is the ultimate color of luck in this culture. Chinese Americans also avoid purchasing insurance because of the fear that they may be inviting death.

Answer to Question 2

B
The nurse should identify that a Navajo client would not express grief openly and would be reluctant to touch a dead body. Navajo Indians do not bury the body of a deceased person for 4 days after death, and they conduct a cleaning ceremony prior to burial. The dead are buried with their shoes on the wrong feet and rings on their index fingers.
