Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Roy's Theory of Adaptation, modeled from a behavioral theory, states that human beings are biopsychosocial adaptive systems who use coping mechanisms to adapt to both internal and external stimuli. As such, the theory emphasizes the individual's response to perceived stressors.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Orem focuses on self-care deficit in nursing. Leininger's theory prioritizes culture, while the Tidal Model emphasizes the inevitability of change. The relationship between the client and the nurse is a primary focus of Peplau's Interpersonal Theory.
