ANS: B TL



Physical characteristics are not used to identify cultural groups; there is a difference
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



between the two, and they are considered separately. Physical characteristics should not
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



be used to identify members of cultural groups. To be a member of a specific culture, an
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



individual does not need to have certain identifiable physical characteristics. You should
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



not confuse physical characteristics with cultural characteristics. Gender and race are
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



physical characteristics, not cultural characteristics, and are not used to identify cultural
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



groups.

—Why do you think you are having these symptoms?‖ is an open-ended question that
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



avoids stereotyping, is sensitive and respectful toward the individual, and allows for
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



cultural data to be exchanged. The other questions do not explore the patient’s cultural
TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL TL



beliefs about health problems.
