Practice Question
A client who has been blinded as a result of an injury has informed the nurse of her plans to return to her counselling practice and work full-time. The nurse should realize that this client is demonstrating which aspect of values clarification?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
Acting
Rationale:
✔Values clarification involves three steps: choosing (exploring options), prizing (accepting the choice), and acting (demonstrating the decision through behavior).
✔The client’s plan to return to work despite blindness shows she has moved beyond deliberation and is implementing her values.
✔Acting is the final and most critical phase, as it reflects commitment to the clarified value (e.g., maintaining independence and professional identity).
✔This step distinguishes values clarification from mere intention.
