Question

a nurse is collecting data about the self - concept of a client who recently lost their job and, as a result, might lose their home to foreclosure. which of the following questions should the nurse ask the client when gathering information regarding self - concept?
\what did your partner say when you lost your job?\
\why do you think that you were fired?\
\how would you describe yourself and your situation?\
\what are you going to tell your friends about losing your job?\

Explanation:

To assess self - concept, we need a question that elicits the client's own perception of themselves and their situation.

• The question "What did your partner say when you lost your job?" focuses on the partner's reaction, not the client's self - concept.
• The question "Why do you think that you were fired?" is about the reason for job loss, not self - concept.
• The question "How would you describe yourself and your situation?" directly asks the client to describe themselves and their situation, which is relevant to understanding their self - concept.
• The question "What are you going to tell your friends about losing your job?" focuses on what the client will tell others, not their self - concept.

Answer:

C. "How would you describe yourself and your situation?" (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C, D with C being the correct one as per the analysis)
