Driving forces are those that push toward making the change, as opposed to restraining forces, which are
X Z XZ XZ X Z X Z XZ X Z XZ X Z XZ XZ X Z X Z XZ X Z XZ
those that usually present a challenge that needs to be overcome for the change to take place or
X Z XZ IA X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z
present a negative effect the change may initiate.

XZ X Z XZ XZ X Z
Moving
b. Unfreezing
c. Action
d. Refreezing
ANS: B The patient is in the first phase of Lewin‘s Change Theory, known as unfreezing. This phase involves
XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ
determining that a change needs to occur and deciding to take action. Moving is the second phase and involves
XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ
actively planning changes and taking action on them. Refreezing is the last stage, and it
XZ XZ X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z
occurs when the change has become a part of the person‘s life.

5. An LPN is talking with her clinical instructor about her decision to return to school to become
X Z X Z XZ X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z XZ X Z XZ X Z X Z X Z
an RN. The clinical instructor interprets the LPNs outcome priority based on which N

XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ XZ
ANS: B XZ
The outcome priority is the essential need that must be addressed, determined by internal and external
XZ X Z XZ XZ X Z X Z X Z X Z XZ X Z X Z X Z XZ X Z X Z
factors, such as needing to better a financial situation. The other statements indicate reasons for
X Z X Z XZ IA X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z
returning to school, but they are not essential needs or issues to be addressed.

b. Applies for the position X Z X Z X Z
c. Identifies that change is needed XZ XZ XZ XZ
d. Settles into the routine of her job XZ X Z X Z X Z XZ X Z
ANS: B XZ
Unfreezing begins when reasons for change are identified. The moving phase involves active planning
X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z
and action. Moving also means you are dealing with both positive and negative forces as they ebb
X Z X Z XZ X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z XZ X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z XZ
and flow, and you are making modifications to your plan as needed. Refreezing occurs after the
X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z XZ IA XZ X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z X Z XZ X Z
change has become routine.
