1. How is disease defined?
a. The failure of a person’s adaptive mechanisms to counteract stimuli and stresses adequately, resulting
in functional or structural disturbances
b. Disease and illness are components of a struggle for balance in the bodily systems
c. The failure of a person’s bodily systems in responding to stresses, resulting in a hormonal imbalance
d. The assault by stimuli and stress on the body’s core defence systems
RIGHT ANSWER: A
Disease may be defined as the failure of a person’s adaptive mechanisms to counteract stimuli and stresses
adequately, resulting in functional or structural disturbances. This definition is an ecological concept of
disease, which uses multiple factors to determine the cause of disease, rather than describing a single cause.
Disease and illness are not synonymous.

functioning that realizes a person’s potential and is experienced within a developmental context.

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

6. Which Canadian report is considered to be a landmark document in creating a global approach to health?
a. Population Health Promotion Model
b. Healthy People 2020
c. Framework for Health Promotion in Canada
d. World Health Organization Quality of Life
RIGHT ANSWER: C
By the mid-1980s, Canada became a world leader in the formulation of health-promotion ideals and strategies,
particularly with the unveiling of the Framework for Health Promotion in Canada at the first World Health
Organization (WHO) conference on health promotion in Ottawa. The overall goal of ―achieving health for all‖
in this report identifies three health challenges: reducing inequities, increasing prevention, and enhancing
coping. The three health-promotion mechanisms to address these challenges are self-care, mutual aid, and
healthy environments. The final component of the framework consists of three implementation strategies:
fostering public participation, strengthening community health services; and coordinating health public policy.
Healthy People 2020 is a US-based document to guide planning for health care. The WHO Quality of Life tool
is a quality of life measurement tool used by health care workers. The
Population Health Promotion Model was developed to provide an overall framework to guide health promotion
by blending both health promotion and population health concepts.
