Answer to Question 2

C
According to Neuman's theory, the goal of primary prevention is to promote wellness by pre-venting stress and reducing risk factors.
The client who follows a high-fat diet in order to lower her high-density lipid relates to second-ary prevention, which occurs after symptoms appear.
The example of client who walks 3 km a day to keep her blood pressure from rising above 130/70 does not relate to the goal of primary prevention.
The example of the client who attends a survivor support group after the loss of a spouse in an automobile accident does not relate to the goal of primary prevention.
