Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale: Leininger's theory of culture care diversity and universality is based on the assumption that nurses must understand different cultures in order to function effectively. Nightingale's theory focuses on the environment. Watson's theory focuses on caring in itself. Orem's theory is about self-care and deficit.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,2,3
Rationale: Professionalism and courtesy are not ingredients described by Mayeroff. Other listed major ingredients are knowing, alternating rhythms, hope, and courage.
