Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3
Explanation: Nurses in positions of both formal and informal power have a great deal of impact on how the therapeutic nurse-patient relationship develops. However, it is nurses on the front line whose psychological empowerment and innovative practice behaviors will have the most impact on patients at the point of service.
