Answer to Question 1

B
Among Asian cultures, face-saving communication promotes harmony through indirect, ambiguous communication and conflict avoidance. American culture supports individualism, where people value assertive communication because it manifests the ideals of individual autonomy and self-determination.

Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A Intuition is part of the clinical judgement the nurse is using in this situation. In making a clinical judgement, the nurse considers the context of the situation and relies on analytical processes, intuition, and narrative thinking. As the nurse reflects on actions taken, clinical learning occurs, which contributes to future clinical judgements.
B Reflection is the process of purposefully thinking back or recalling a situation to discover its purpose or meaning.
C Knowledge of the nurse includes information and theory from the basic sciences, humanities, behavioural sciences, and nursing.
D Scientific method is an approach to seeking the truth or verifying that a set of facts agrees with reality.
