Association.
b. watching a television show about diabetes.
c. learning about food safety techniques in a high school economics course.
d. joining a support group to help overcome an eating disorder.

experience that occurs through a daily activity. Attending a workshop or joining a support group
would be considered nonformal education; a high school course would be considered formal
education.

2. A college student exercises regularly and generally eats a healthy variety of foods, is taking a
course in general nutrition, buys locally produced food whenever possible, is an active member
of an on-campus faith-based organization, and keeps a journal to help process her emotions.
What else could be important for her to include in her life in order to develop her overall
wellness?
a. Growing some of her own food
b. Keeping a food record to help evaluate what she eats
c. Eating meals with friends throughout the week
d. Meeting with a registered dietitian to review her food choices
ANS: C
Wellness enhances a person’s level of health through development of each of the six dimensions
of health: physical health, intellectual health, emotional health, social health, spiritual health, and
environmental health. Exercise and eating a healthy variety of foods help develop physical
health; taking a course in general nutrition helps develop intellectual health; buying locally
, produced food helps develop environmental health; being part of a faith-based organization helps
develop spiritual health; and keeping a journal helps develop emotional health. The missing
dimension in this example is development of social health; eating meals with friends throughout
the week would add this dimension. Growing her own food would be another example of
environmental health; keeping a food record would be another contributor to physical health; and
meeting with a registered dietitian may contribute to physical, intellectual, and emotional health.
