Question 3 of 5

A nurse is developing a community health education program focused on preventing childhood obesity. Which intervention should be prioritized?

Correct Answer: A

Question 4 of 5

A school nurse is planning a program to address bullying among students. Which strategy is most likely to be effective?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Promoting bystander intervention is the most effective strategy as it empowers students to take action and prevent bullying incidents. By encouraging bystanders to intervene when they witness bullying, the behavior is less likely to continue. Zero-tolerance policies may have limited effectiveness as they often focus on punishment rather than prevention. Peer mediation and conflict resolution workshops are valuable but may not directly address the immediate need for bystander intervention in bullying situations.
