Watching a television show about diabetes is an example of informal education because it is an
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
experience that occurs through a daily activity. Attending a workshop or joining a support group
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
would be considered nonformal education; a high school course would be considered formal
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
education.

2. A college student exercises regularly and generally eats a healthy variety of foods, is taking a
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
course in general nutrition, buys locally produced food whenever possible, is an active member
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
of an on-campus faith-based organization, and keeps a journal to help process her emotions.

,Wellness enhances a persons level of health through development of each of the six dimensions
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
of health: physical health, intellectual health, emotional health, social health, spiritual health, and
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
environmental health. Exercise and eating a health variety of foods help develop physical health;
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
taking a course in general nutrition helps develop intellectual health; buying locally produced
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
food helps develop environmental health; being part of a faith-based organization helps develop
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
spiritual health; and keeping a journal helps develop emotional health. The missing dimension in
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
this example is development of social health; eating meals with friends throughout the week
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
would add this dimension. Growing her own food would be another example of environmental
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
health; keeping a food record would be another contributor to physical health; and meeting with
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
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
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
health can be affected by
v v v v v v v v v , which can cause confusion or anxiety.
v v v v v v
a. low blood sugar levels
v v v v
b.high blood sugar levels
v v v v
c.high blood pressure
v v v v
d.extremely low blood pressure v v v
ANS: D
v v
Poor eating habits affect emotional health. Missing meals may cause blood sugar levels to
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
decrease, which can cause anxiety or confusion or make it difficult to control emotions. Late
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
night binges on snack food are likely to result in excessive energy intake but would have a less
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
direct effect on emotional health. Eating small meals throughout the day is likely to maintain
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
more constant blood sugar levels, which would actually have a positive effect on emotional
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
health. Excessive caffeine consumption may contribute to anxiety, but 2 cups of caffeinated
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
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
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
of Health and Human Services when target goals for Healthy People 2030 are updated is
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
a.preference for vegetarian eating patterns among white women.
v v v v v v v v
b.low intake of fruits and vegetables by African American children.
v v v v v v v v v v
c.widespread use of bottled water in higher socioeconomic groups.
v v v v v v v v v v
d.common use of protein and vitamin supplements in athletes.
v v v v v v v v v
ANS: B v
Healthy People is used to set targets for health promotion to improve the health of all
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
individuals. It addresses environmental and social issues that affect health outcomes. Low intake
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
of fruits and vegetables by African American children is likely to have an adverse effect on their
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
health and so may be addressed when target goals are set. Vegetarian eating patterns, use of
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
bottled water, and use of protein and vitamin supplements do not necessarily have an adverse
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
effect on nutritional health and so are less likely to be addressed.

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