Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Key indicators of a patient's self-concept are nonverbal behaviors. A history of drug abuse does not necessarily indicate current self-concept, and people who do not have a drug abuse history may have a low self-concept. It would be an invasion of privacy and trust for a nurse to read a patient's personal journal or social media posts.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Self-concept, or how a person thinks about oneself, directly affects self-esteem, or how one feels about oneself. While others may influence self-concept, self-concept is not how one feels or thinks about others.
