Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
African-Americans have a higher rate of stroke death that do white Americans, even at younger ages. The nurse chooses the African-American church for stroke screening. The other places will not have as large of a high-risk population.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
According to Havighurst, one of the tasks of the young adult is to select an occupation. Changing the way one performs familiar tasks is seen in the middle adult stage. Seriation activities test fluid intelligence and are often used in middle adulthood. Although for Havighurst, achieving emotional independence from parents is important, that does not preclude having a good relationship with them.
