Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
Culture influences beliefs about health and illness, including causes of illness. What the nurse might label as delusional might be a culturally determined belief about illness causation. The oth-er assessments do not relate to the situation as directly.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
Faith is the ability to draw on spiritual resources without having physical and empiric proof. Op-tion 1 refers to psychosomatic concepts. Option 2 refers to religion. Option 4 refers to spirituality.
