Psychosocial and Socioeconomic Factors include

• A. The stability of marital or intimate relationships, and lifestyle habits
• B. The patient's height
• C. The nurse's years of experience
• D. The room location

Answer: (B)

Psychosocial and socioeconomic factors describe how people relate to others, cope with life, and access resources that affect health. Stable intimate relationships provide social support and emotional well-being, while lifestyle habits reflect daily behaviors that influence health outcomes. The patient’s height is a biological characteristic and does not reflect social or economic context. The nurse’s years of experience and the room location pertain to the care environment or provider factors, not to the patient’s psychosocial or socioeconomic status. Therefore, the option that mentions relationships and lifestyle habits best captures psychosocial factors.
