• The principle “Health promotion is multisectoral” means which of the following?
• Relationships between individual, social, and environmental factors must be
recognized.
• Physical, mental, social, ecological, cultural, and spiritual aspects of health must be
recognized.
• In order to change unhealthy living and working conditions, areas other than health
must also be involved.
• Health promotion uses knowledge from disciplines such as social, economic, political,
environmental, medical, and nursing sciences, as well as from first-handexperience.
ANS: C
The statement “Health promotion is multisectoral” is the principle explained by the
necessity to involve areas other than health in order to change unhealthy living and
working conditions.

TOP: Planning MSC: NCLEX: Health Promotion and Maintenance
• According to the World Health Organization, what is the best description of “health”?
• Simply the absence of disease.
• Involving the total person and environment.
• Strictly personal in nature.
, • Status of pathological state.
ANS: B
WHO defines health as “. . .the extent to which an individual or group is able, on the onehand, to
realize aspirations and satisfy needs; and, on the other hand, to change or cope with the
environment. Health is, therefore, seen as a resource for everyday life, not the objective of
living; it is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical
capacities.” Nurses’ attitudes toward health and illness should consider the total person, as well
as the environment in which the person lives. People free of disease are not equally healthy.
Views of health have broadened to include mental, social, and spiritual well-being, as well as a
focus on health at family and community levels.
Conditions of life, rather than pathological states, are what determine health.

• What priority strategy for health promotion in Canada is optional but seen as important to
incorporate in nursing education curricula?
• Knowledge of disease prevention.
• Strategies for health promotion.
• Policy advocacy.
• Concepts of determinants of health.
ANS: C
Increasingly, policy advocacy is incorporated into nursing role statements and nursing education
curricula. Nurses should think about policies that have contributed to health problems, policies
that would help alleviate health problems, and how nurses championpublic policies. Disease
prevention, health promotion, and concepts of determinants of health are integral parts of
nursing curricula.
DIF: Understand REF: 11| 12

conceptualizations of health and health determinants. TOP: Planning MSC:

Health Promotion?

• Social support.
• Self-esteem.
• Physical environment.

for Health Promotion. Lack of social support and low self-esteem were identifiedas
psychosocial risk factors by Labonte (1993). Dangerous physical environments wereidentified
as socioenvironmental risk factors by Labonte (1993).

MSC: NCLEX: Health Promotion and Maintenance
• The determinant of health with the greatest effect on the health of Canadians is which ofthe
following?
• Education.
• Health services.
• Social support networks.
• Income and social status.
ANS: D
Income, income distribution, and social status constitute the greatest determinant of health
because they influence most other determinants. Some investigators suggest that literacyand
education are important influences on health status because they affect many other health
determinants. Approximately 25% of a population’s health status is attributed to thequality of
its health care services. Social support affects health, health behaviours, and health care
utilization but is not the greatest determinant of health.
