does not believe in preventive health care?


a. Clinical model
b. Role performance model
c. Adaptive model

acupuncture. Which model of health does this person likely favor?
a. Clinical model

c. Adaptive model
d. Eudaimonistic model
ANS: D

, The eudaimonistic model embodies the interaction and interrelationships among physical,
social, psychological, and spiritual aspects of life and the environment in goal attainment and

model often look for alternative providers of care.

and is experienced within a developmental context is known as:

a. Someone who has well-controlled diabetes
b. Someone with hypercholesterolemia
c. Someone with a headache
d. Someone with coronary artery disease without angina
ANS: C
Someone with a headache represents a person with an illness. An illness is made up of the
subjective experience of the individual and the physical manifestation of disease. It can be
described as a response characterized by a mismatch between a person‘s needs and the
resources available to meet those needs. A person can have a disease without feeling ill. The
other choices represent disease.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Analyze (Analysis) REF: p. 6

5. Which US report is considered a landmark document in creating a global approach to health?

, c. Interventional cardiac catheterization

this definition. Blood pressure screening does not prevent disease, but instead identifies it.

7. Which of the following represents a method of secondary prevention?
a. Self–breast examination education
b. Yearly mammograms
c. Chemotherapy for advanced breast cancer
d. Complete mastectomy for breast cancer

Screening is secondary prevention because the principal goal of screenings is to identify
individuals in an early, detectable stage of the disease process. A mammogram is a screening
tool for breast cancer and thus is considered a method of secondary prevention.

maximize remaining capacities.
