CORRECT ANSWER: A
Disease may be defined as the failure of a person’s adaptive mechanisms to counteract stimulì and stresses
adequately, resulting in functional or structural disturbances. This definition is an ecological concept of
disease, which uses multiple factors to determine the cause of disease, rather than describing a single
cause. Disease and illness are not synonymous.

, Franklyn A Plus Pass
b. Someone with hypercholesterolemia
c. Someone with a headache
d. Someone with coronary artery disease without angina
CORRECT ANSWER: 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.

6. Which Canadian report is considered to be a landmark document in creating a global approach to
health?
a. Population Health Promotion Model
b. Healthy People 2020
c. Framework for Health Promotion in Canada
d. World Health Organization Quality of Life
CORRECT ANSWER: C
By the mid-1980s, Canada became a world leader in the formulation of health-promotion ideals and
strategies, particularly with the unveiling of the Framework for Health Promotion in Canada at the first
World Health Organization (WHO) conference on health promotion in Ottawa. The overall goal of
―achieving health for all‖ in this report identifies three health challenges: reducing inequities, increasing
prevention, and enhancing coping. The three health-promotion mechanisms to address these challenges
are self-care, mutual aid, and healthy environments. The final component of the framework consists of
three implementation strategies: fostering public participation, strengthening community health services;
and coordinating health public policy.
Healthy People 2020 is a US-based document to guide planning for health care. The WHO Quality of Life
tool is a quality of life measurement tool used by health care workers. The
Population Health Promotion Model was developed to provide an overall framework to guide health
promotion by blending both health promotion and population health concepts.
