Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: Knowing, according to Swanson, is striving to understand an event as it has meaning in the life of the other. A subdimension of this process is avoiding assumptions. The nurse in this situation made an assumption about clients with bipolar disorder. Being with is being emotionally present to another person. Doing for is providing for others as they would do for themselves if it were at all possible. Enabling is facilitating the other's passage through life transitions and unfamiliar events.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale: Aesthetic knowing is the art of nursing and is expressed by the individual nurse through his or her creativity and style in meeting the needs of clients. Understanding how other nurses meet the needs of their clients and seeing a variety of methods to provide the same care will help improve this type of knowledge for the students. The other options are ways to improve empirical knowing.
