Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Dispel the myth that it is necessary to know all there is to know about nursing to be a good nurse. At no one point in time does any nurse ever have it all together. Take errors seriously but do not dwell on them; accentuate the positive. Do not avoid your weaknesses until they become stronger; they won't improve without hard work on your part. Work to develop team self-esteem. A basic interpersonal principle that seems to work well in practice is to offer to others what you want yourself.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B, D, E
Society encourages a kind of denial of the eventuality of aging, chronic illness, and the necessity to integrate crisis and change throughout each person's lifetime. Society emphasizes and rewards youth, health, and narrow norms for physical attractiveness while devaluing seniors, those with chronic illness, and those whose appearance does not correspond to movie-star standards. Wisdom with the ability to mentor the inexperienced is important, but not as valued by society as physical attractiveness.
