Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D, E
Nursing's metaparadigm includes four concepts: person, health, environment/situation, and nursing. Disease is not part of nursing's metaparadigm.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The nursing process provides a systematic approach for the delivery of nursing care. Theory generates nursing knowledge for use in practice; the nursing process is not a theory. A nursing theory conceptualizes an aspect of nursing to describe, explain, predict, or prescribe nursing care. An interdisciplinary theory explains a phenomenon specific to the discipline that developed the theory.
