ANS: B T




Watching a television show about diabetes is an example of informal education because it is an
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




experience that occurs through a daily activity. Attending a workshop or joining a support group
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




would be considered nonformal education; a high school course would be considered formal

education.

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?

Wellness enhances a persons level of health through development of each of the six dimensions
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




of health: physical health, intellectual health, emotional health, social health, spiritual health, and
T T T T T T T T T T T T T




environmental health. Exercise and eating a health variety of foods help develop physical health;
T T T T T T T T T T T T T




taking a course in general nutrition helps develop intellectual health; buying locally produced
T T T T T T T T T T T T




food helps develop environmental health; being part of a faith-based organization helps develop
T T T T T T T T T T T T T



spiritual health; and keeping a journal helps develop emotional health. The missing dimension in
T T T T T T T T T T T T T




this example is development of social health; eating meals with friends throughout the week
T T T T T T T T T T T T T




would add this dimension. Growing her own food would be another example of environmental
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




health; keeping a food record would be another contributor to physical health; and meeting with
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




a registered dietitian may contribute to physical, intellectual, and emotional health.

a.low blood sugar levels

ANS: D T




Poor eating habits affect emotional health. Missing meals may cause blood sugar levels to
T T T T T T T T T T T T T




decrease, which can cause anxiety or confusion or make it difficult to control emotions. Late
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




night binges on snack food are likely to result in excessive energy intake but would have a less
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




direct effect on emotional health. Eating small meals throughout the day is likely to maintain
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




more constant blood sugar levels, which would actually have a positive effect on emotional
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T




health. Excessive caffeine consumption may contribute to anxiety, but 2 cups of caffeinated

coffee is not considered excessive.

measure that supports new health-promoting behaviors within a social context. Teaching,
T T T T T T T T T T T




watching television and awareness may increase knowledge, but they do not alter the social

context by regulation or environmental change.
