Leading and Managing in Nursing, 7th
Edition Chapter 09: Power, Politics, and
InfluenceYoder-Wise: Questions and
Correct Answers the Latest Update and
Recommended Version
1. A nurse manager is experiencing poor staff morale on her unit. While participating in a

baccalaureate course, the nurse manager had learned that one of the reasons nurses lack

power today is related to the past. In the early decades of the profession, nurses lacked

power because:

a. nurses freely chose to defer to physicians and administrators with more education.

b. women lacked legal, social, and political power because of legal and cultural

barriers.

c. the first nursing licensure laws prohibited nurses from making most decisions.

d. nurses astutely recognized the risks of grabbing too much power too soon.

→ ANS: B
→ Nursing mirrored the lack of legal, social, and political power that was prevalent in the
early decades of the profession.


2. Nurses who engage in infighting, seek physician support against nursing colleagues, and

avoid political advocacy through membership in nursing organizations:

a. refuse to believe that they are acting like members of groups that suffer

socioeconomic oppression.

b. do not understand how their failure to exercise power can limit the power of the

whole profession.

c. purposefully choose to exercise their power in the workplace through indirect

means.

d. suffer from learned helplessness as a result of abuse by powerful nurse executives.

→ ANS: B
→ Becoming an active, productive, collegial member of groups and teams within the
workplace and in professional associations and community groups ensures that the
nursing voice is heard on healthcare issues and problems and is an appropriate
exercise of power.


3. A nurse belongs to several professional organizations, serving on a state-level committee of

one group and on two task forces at work. The nurse is committed to a range of health issues

and knows the state senator from the nurse's district, as well as the name of the representative

in Washington, DC. This nurse exemplifies which level of political activism in nursing?

a. Gladiator

b. Buy-in

c. Self-interest

d. Political astuteness

→ ANS: D
→ Political involvement is a professional responsibility and nurses' perspectives of the
critical issues for improving the healthcare system can shape the policy agenda of the
nation's political leadership. This nurse exemplifies several of the skills associated with
political astuteness.


4. A manager relies on his director (immediate supervisor) for advice about enrolling in

graduate school to prepare for a career as a nurse executive. The director may exercise what

kinds of power in the relationship with the manager in this advisory situation?

a. Expert, coercive, and referent
