Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Older people are usually not as familiar with the concept of autonomy as people from younger generations. As a result, older adults are sometimes uncomfortable disagreeing with doctors or nurses. They view assertiveness as a violation of trust. The remaining options reflect autonomy problems but management of personal health issues is the most important issue.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Development of values begins in childhood, shaped by experiences within the family unit, espe-cially dramatic events during the formative years. The other options may influence the value sys-tem, but not to the same extent.
