Case Study No. 1
Sue Kim, 49 years of age, emigrated from South Korea to the
United States 6 years ago. Her family came to the US to
educate their children and moved in with family members in
Los Angeles. Sue and her husband graduated from a top-ranked university
in South Korea, and her husband also had a master’s degree in
business. However, their English skills were not adequate for
them to get jobs in the United States. Instead, they opened a
Korean grocery store with the money they brought from South
Korea, and they managed to settle down in Los Angeles, where a number of Koreans are living. They have two children: Mina, a 25-year-old daughter who is
now the manager of a local shop, and Yujun, a 21-year-old
son who is a college student. Both children were born in South
Korea and moved to United States with Sue. The children had
a hard time, especially Mina, who came to the United States in
her senior year of high school. However, the children finally
adapted to their new environment. Now, Mina is living alone
in one-bedroom apartment near downtown, and Yujun is
living in a university dormitory. The Kim’s are a religious family and attend their community’s
protestant church regularly. They are involved in many church
activities. Sue and her husband have been too busy to have
regular annual checkups for the past 6 years. About 1 year ago, Sue began to have serious indigestion, nausea, vomiting, and upper abdominal pain; she took some
over-the-counter medicine and tried to tolerate the pain. Last
month, her symptoms became more serious; she visited a local
clinic and was referred to a larger hospital. Recently, she was
diagnosed with stomach cancer after a series of diagnostics
tests and had surgery; she is now is undergoing chemotherapy. You are the nurse who is taking care of Sue during this
hospitalization. Sue is very polite and modest whenever you
approach her. Sue is very quiet and never complains about any
symptoms or pain. However, on several occasions, you think
that Sue is in serious pain, when considering her facial
expressions and sweating forehead. You think that Sue’s
English skills may not allow her to adequately communicate
with health care providers. Also, you find that Sue does not
have many visitors -only her husband and two children.

NCM 100 TFN – Case Study 1 Topic: Transitions Theory by Afaf Ibrahim Meleis
You frequently find Sue praying while listening to some
previous songs. You also find her sobbing silently. About 2
weeks are left until Sue finishes chemotherapy. You think that
you should do something for Sue so she will not suffer
through pain and symptoms that could be easily controlled
with existing pain-management strategies. Now, you begin
some preliminary planning. Answer the following Questions:
1. Describe your assessment of the transition(s) Sue is
experiencing. What are the types and patterns of transition(s)?
What properties of transitions can you identify from her case?
2. What personal, community, and societal transition
conditions may have influenced Sue’s experience? What are
the cultural meanings attached to cancer, cancer pain, and
symptoms accompanying chemotherapy, in this situation?
What are Sue’s cultural attitudes toward cancer and cancer
patient’s? What factors may facilitate or inhibit her
transition(s)?
3. Consider the patterns of response that Sue is showing. What
are the indicators of healthy transition(s)? What are the
indicators of unhealthy transition(s)?
4. Reflect on how Transitions Theory helped your assessment
and nursing care for Sue. 5. If you were Sue’s nurse, what would be your first
action/interaction with her? Describe a plan of nursing care for
Sue.

1. Each of the following situations requires a significance test about a population mean μ. State the appropriate null hypothesis, H0, and alternative hypothesis, Ha, in each case. [Use words and/or symbols to state these]

• Larry’s car averages 32 miles per gallon on the highway. He switches to a new motor oil that is advertised as increasing gas mileage. After driving 3000 highway miles with the new oil, he wants to determine if his gas mileage actually has increased.
• A university gives credit in a French language course to students who pass a placement test. The language department wants to know if students who get credit in this way differ in their understanding of spoken French from students who actually take the French course. Some faculty think the students who test out of the course are better, but others argue that they are weaker in oral comprehension. Experience has shown that the mean score of students in the course on a standard listening test is 24. The language department gives the same listening test to a sample of 40 students who passed the placement test to see if their performance is different.
• Experiments on learning in animals sometimes measure how long it takes a mouse to find its way through a maze. The mean time is 18 seconds for one particular maze. A student thinks that a loud noise will cause the mice to complete the maze faster. She measures how long each of 10 mice takes with a noise as stimulus.

John starts his career at 21 years old and expects to retire 44 years later at the age of 65. His first annual salary is $72,000 that will increase at 1.5% per year until he finishes his part-time MBA at 28 years old. With his MBA, John expects salary to increase at 3% per year until retirement. At the end of each year, he deposits 10% of his annual salary into a retirement saving plan that pays 6% interest per year compounded monthly. On the first day of his retirement, John converts his whole retirement saving plan into a registered retirement income fund (RRIF) that earns 8% interest per year compounded quarterly. The RRIF will pay John $Y per quarter, the first payment being paid on the day he buys the RRIF, for 25 years. Find Y.  (Show your work without using MS Excel)
