1. Which model of health is most likely used by a person who does not believe in preventive health care?
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
a. Clinical model g
b. Role performance model g g
c. Adaptive model g
d. Eudaimonistic model g
ANS: A g
The clinical model of health views the absence of signs and symptoms of disease as indicative of health. People
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
who use this model wait until they are very sick to seek care.

2. A person with chronic back pain is cared for by her primary care provider as well as
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
receives acupuncture. Which model of health does this person likely favor?
g g g g g g g g g g g
a. Clinical model g
b. Role performance model g g
c. Adaptive model g
d. Eudaimonistic model g
ANS: D g
The eudaimonistic model embodies the interaction and interrelationships among physical, social,
g g g g g g g g g g
psychological, and spiritual aspects of life and the environment in goal attainment and creating meaning in
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
life. Practitioners who practice the clinical model may not be enough for someone who believes in the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
eudaimonistic model. Those who believe in the eudaimonistic model often look for alternative providers of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
care.

angina ANS: C
g g g
, Someone with a headache represents a person with an illness. An illness is made up of the subjective
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
experience of the individual and the physical manifestation of disease. It can be described as a response
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
characterized by a mismatch between a person’s needs and the resources available to meet those needs. A
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
person can have a disease without feeling ill. The other choices represent disease.

g g g g g g g g g
a. Informational session about healthy lifestyles g g g g
b. Blood pressure screening g g
c. Interventional cardiac catheterization g g
d. Diagnostic cardiac catheterization g g
ANS: A g
Primary prevention precedes disease or dysfunction. It includes health promotion and specific protection and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
encourages increased awareness; thus, education about healthy lifestyles fits this definition. Blood pressure
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
screening does not prevent disease, but instead identifies it.

g g g g g g g g g
a. Self–breast examination education g g
b. Yearly mammograms g
c. Chemotherapy for advanced breast cancer g g g g
d. Complete mastectomy for breast cancer g g g g
ANS: B g
Screening is secondary prevention because the principal goal of screenings is to identify individuals in an early,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
detectable stage of the disease process. A mammogram is a screening tool for breast cancer and thus is
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
considered a method of secondary prevention.

ghead trauma ANS: D
g g g
, Physical therapy and occupational therapy are considered tertiary prevention. Tertiary prevention occurs when
g g g g g g g g g g g g
a defect or disability is permanent and irreversible. It involves minimizing the effect of disease and disability.
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
The objective of tertiary prevention is to maximize remaining capacities.
