Answer to Question 1

Rationale 1: An adult is more oriented to learning when the material is useful immediately, not sometime in the future.
Rationale 2: Written information may or may not be helpful, depending on what types of learners are included in the group.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: Compliance is best illustrated when the person recognizes and accepts the need to learn, then follows through with appropriate behaviors that reflect learning. Learning about the medications helps the client understand why they're prescribed and improves the possibility for following the prescribed regimen. Statements of prior knowledge do not necessarily lead to compliance and neither does merely following the advice of the health care prescriber.
