MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Examples of informal education include
A.attending a workshop on coronary artery disease sponsored by the Amrican Heart Association.
B.watching a television show about diabetes.
C.learning about food safety techniques in a high school economics course. D.joining a
support group to help overcome an eating disorder.
ANS: B
Watching a television show about diabetes is an example of informal education because it is an
experience that occurs through a daily activity. Attending a workshop or joining a support group would
be considered nonformal education; a high school course would be considered formal education.

2. A college student exercises regularly and generally eats a healthy variety of foods, is taking a course
in general nutrition, buys locally produced food whenever possible, is an active member of an on-
campus faith-based organization, and keeps a journal to help process her emotions. What else could
be important for her to include in her life in order to develop her overall wellness?
a. Growing some of her own food
b. Keeping a food record to help evaluate what she eats
c. Eating meals with friends throughout the week
d. Meeting with a registered dietitian to review her food choices
ANS: C
Wellness enhances a persons level of health through development of each of the six dimensions of
health: physical health, intellectual health, emotional health, social health, spiritual health, and
environmental health. Exercise and eating a health variety of foods help develop physical health; taking
a course in general nutrition helps develop intellectual health; buying locally produced food helps
develop environmental health; being part of a faith-based organization helps develop spiritual health;
and keeping a journal helps develop emotional health. The missing dimension in this example is
development of social health; eating meals with friends throughout the week
,Would add this dimension. Growing her own food would be another example of environmental health;
keeping a food record would be another contributor to physical health; and meeting with a registered
dietitian may contribute to physical, intellectual, and emotional health.

3. For a client who is missing meals because of poor planning or is too busy to eat, emotional health
can be affected by , which can cause confusion or anxiety.
a. Low blood sugar levels
b.high blood sugar levels
C. High blood pressure
d.extremely low blood pressure
ANS: D
Poor eating habits affect emotional health. Missing meals may cause blood sugar levels to decrease,
which can cause anxiety or confusion or make it difficult to control emotions. Late night binges on
snack food are likely to result in excessive energy intake but would have a less direct effect on
emotional health. Eating small meals throughout the day is likely to maintain more constant blood
sugar levels, which would actually have a positive effect on emotional health. Excessive caffeine
consumption may contribute to anxiety, but 2 cups of caffeinated coffee is not considered excessive.

4. The best example of the type of concern that is likely to be addressed by the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services when target goals for Healthy People 2030 are updated is
A.preference for vegetarian eating patterns among white women. B.low
intake of fruits and vegetables by African American children.
C.widespread use of bottled water in higher socioeconomic groups.
D.common use of protein and vitamin supplements in athletes.
ANS: B
Healthy People is used to set targets for health promotion to improve the health of all individuals. It
addresses environmental and social issues that affect health outcomes. Low intake of fruits and
vegetables by African American children is likely to have an adverse effect on their health and so may be
addressed when target goals are set. Vegetarian eating patterns, use of bottled water, and use of
protein and vitamin supplements do not necessarily have an adverse
, Effect on nutritional health and so are less likely to be addressed.

5. An example of community support for health promotion is
A.teaching a young mother skills in safe food preparation.
B.watching a television documentary about industry errors in food processing. C.labeling
fresh poultry packages with information about proper food storage.
D.being aware that Salmonella can be transmitted because of inadequate food preparation. ANS: C
Food labeling information is an example of community support because it is a regulatory measure
that supports new health-promoting behaviors within a social context. Teaching, watching television
and awareness may increase knowledge, but they do not alter the social context by regulation or
environmental change.

6. An example of a technique for health promotion is
A. Exercising five times a week.
B.local supermarkets expanding the availability of fresh fruits and vegetables. C.teaching
a teenager how to choose healthier foods at fast-food restaurants. D.information about
the relationship of dietary intake and diet-related disorders.
ANS: C
Health promotion consists of strategies that are designed improve the health of individuals, families,
groups, and communities, such as teaching a teenager how to choose healthier fast foods. Exercising
regularly contributes to wellness, but it is not bringing about a change in health unless this is a change in
behavior. Stocking a wider availability of fresh produce does not promote health, unless the
supermarket uses specific strategies to encourage consumption.
Information about the relationship between nutrients and disease is simply information unless it is
used to promote behavior change.
