Answer to Question 1

D
Promoting and accepting positive and negative feelings as you listen to another's story is being demonstrated by this nurse. The other options are other caritas processes, but allowing the patient to reveal his or her narrative while not shutting down the negative feelings is the prime activity.

Answer to Question 2

A
Nursing theories aim to describe, explain, or predict relationships among the four main concepts of nursing: person, environment, health/illness, and nursing. They are not all broad theories; some are quite specific and limited to particular situations. Not all theories aim to generate knowledge. Theories cannot predict what all people will do in a certain situation.
