Explanation:

• Question 6: Breaking tasks into smaller steps helps individuals manage and complete activities independently. Rushing or doing tasks for them reduces independence, and only praising full - task completion may not encourage partial progress.
• Question 7: Activities of daily living (ADLs) are the basic personal care activities. "Daily living tasks" is too general, "routines and preferences" are not the core basic care activities, and "care plan activities" are more about a plan rather than the basic daily care.
• Question 8: Focusing on what a person can accomplish empowers them. Focusing on limitations ("cannot accomplish", "needs most help", "most limited") is demotivating.
• Question 9: Establishing goals is the first step. You need to know what you are aiming for before evaluating effectiveness, instructing participation, or determining the program.
• Question 10: Empowerment is about gaining control over care - related decisions and actions. Independence is a state, autonomy is more about self - governance in a general sense (closer but empowerment is more specific to care - related control), and sovereignty is a political term.
