Answer to Question 1

A
Severity questions include: How long does it take you to fall asleep? How often during the week do you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep? Nature of the problem question includes: Tell me what type of problem you have with your sleep. Signs and symptoms question includes: Have you been told that you snore loudly? Onset and duration question includes: When did you notice the problem?

Answer to Question 2

A
Cultural background influences a person's beliefs, values, and customs. It influences personal health practices. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs will not help the nurse to understand the behavior because this is a model to help prioritize care. The definition of health by the WHO will not help the nurse to understand the behavior because it is a definition. Primary prevention occurs before a sickness or dysfunction and includes immunizations.
