MULTIPLE CHOICE



1. Examples of informal education include

a. attending a workshop on coronary artery disease sponsored by the American 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 b eNi mR
p o rtIa n t Gf o r h
Ber.Cto inMclude 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 person’s 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 healthy 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.
