Answer to Question 1

D
The channel is the medium through which the sender transmits the message. The visual channel involves sight, which in turn allows for visual observation and perception.

Answer to Question 2

A
The concept of self-efficacy is a belief that one will succeed in attempts to change behavior. This concept has a profound effect on motivation. If a patient feels they will not achieve the goals, they will lack motivation to try. To maximize motivation, the nurse should keep the teaching-learning goals realistic, break the content down into small steps that are achievable, and provide feedback on the process.
