2. A person states, “My grandmother is the decision maker in our family.” Which of the follow-
ing is being described by the person?
a. Culture
b. Race
c. Ethnicity
d. Values
ANS: A
Culture, as an element of ethnicity, refers to integrated patterns of human behavior that in-
clude the language, thoughts, communications, actions, customs, beliefs, values, and institu-
tions of racial, ethnic, religious, or social groups. The term “ethnicity” encompasses more than
a cultural practice, which is what is being described by the person; it focuses on differences in
meanings, values, and ways of living. Race is associated with power and indexes the history
or ongoing imposition of one’s group’s authority above another. Values are beliefs about the
worth of something and serve as standards that influence behavior and thinking.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (Analysis) REF: p. 24
3. The nurse recommended to a 50-year-old woman that she schedule a routine mammogram.
Which of the following would be the most important factor in this woman’s decision to sched-
ule this exam?
a. Race
b. Ethnicity
c. Cultural values
d. Value orientation
ANS: C
, Cultural values guide actions and decision-making that facilitates self-worth and self-esteem.
They shape human behaviors and determine what individuals will do to maintain their health
status, how they will care for themselves, and others who become ill, and where and from
whom they will seek health care. Race is associated with power and indexes the history or on-
going imposition of one’s group’s authority above another. Ethnicity focuses on differences in
meanings, values, and ways of living. Value orientations reflect the personality type of a par-
ticular society.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply (Application) REF: p. 24
4. Which of the following actions demonstrates a health care professional providing culturally
competent care?
a. Encouraging the person to take medications as prescribed
b. Asking the person to describe his folk healing methods
c. Demonstrating the proper way to administer an insulin injection
d. Assisting the person with discussing his health problems with the family
ANS: B
It is very important for health care providers to be aware of how people interpret their health
issues or illnesses to be capable to provide culturally competent care. A culturally competent
health care professional should be able to consistently and thoroughly recognize and under-
stand the differences in his or her culture and that of the patient or client, to respect the per-
son’s values and beliefs, and adjust the approach of delivering care to meet each person’s
needs and expectations. Asking the person to describe his folk healing methods is the only ac-
tion that demonstrates the health care professional seeking input from the person into the care
that is received.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (Analysis) REF: p. 26
5. A person reports that she has been seeking care from an acupuncturist to help relieve the
chronic pain that she has been experiencing. Which of the following statements would be the
most appropriate response from the nurse?
a. “You should have told me that the current treatments were helping your pain.”
b. “Tell me more about your treatments from the acupuncturist.”
c. “Tell me why you decided to not to continue with your treatment plan.”
d. “You should not be seeing an acupuncturist while receiving professional care.”
ANS: B
Through a culturally sensitive assessment process, nurses can determine what specific reme-
dies individuals are using and whether their continued use would interfere with the prescribed
method. The nurse asking the person to describe the treatments from the acupuncturist allows
the nurse to learn this information. The other responses demonstrate an ethnocentric perspec-
tive by the nurse, viewing the treatments from the acupuncturist as inferior to professional
care.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (Analysis) REF: p. 26
6. When providing an educational session about the Arab American population, which of the fol-
lowing information would be included?
a. The largest group of Arab Americans was refugees in the 1960s.
b. The largest groups of Arab Americans are from Palestine and Iraq.
