presence in Montgomery was viewed as a threat to the development of the newly
elected city government by the Alabama clergymen until his death in 1995. King
was addressing racial issues and an immediate need for social justice in a way
that created social tension between the whites and the black people in their
struggle for social justice. Just after the election of a new city government,
King had started to mobilize people for demonstrations and marches against
racial inequality and these actions were considered risky for the progression
of the newly elected government.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

explains his presence as being driven by the need to fight for social change in
terms of racial equality and thus the need for tremendous tension in the South
to free the Negros from the passive unjust plight (Palczewski et al. 2012).
King also declared to advocate for positive peace which he visualized as
respect for human dignity and personality by eliminating the hidden tension
that the Negros had already lived. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

realities are selected while others are deflected in view of King’s presence in
Montgomery. Realities that are selected include the risk of political
development in Montgomery due to the fact that King was mobilizing the masses
to demonstrate against social injustice. The clergymen deflect the reality that
King’s effort would help improve the way white people treated racial minorities
thus improving social awareness in Montgomery. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

resignifies the meaning of breaking an “unjust law” by analyzing human motives
and relations through symbolic actions. Through these, he is able to identify
the underlying social injustices that people had been living and would continue
to live despite the election of a new city government. Breaking an “unjust law”
is, therefore, a set of actions and purposes that highlights oppressive hidden
concepts.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

resignifies the demonstrations that were so deplored by the Alabama Clergy by
writing to the Alabama Clergy to explain the importance of the tension as part
of crucial phases that would eliminate the negative peace that had set the
Negros in unjust plight. King also describes the demonstrations as non-violent
compared to the hidden violence that the Negros already lived with (Palczewski
et al. 2012). Resignification can be identified as King bringing out the issues
of social justice in the open where it was clearly visible so that it would be
dealt with. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

uses resignification to embrace his characterization as an extremist when he

exposing how the clergy viewed the demonstrators as violent as a mere construct
to change the connotation of justice for the Negros. Even after his arrest, King continues to
write to the clergy about the pressing social issues and this shows how he uses
resignification to embrace his characterization as an extremist. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

symbols have different meanings for different people since people are
influenced by their society, culture, past experiences, and so forth. It is for
this reason that rhetoric cannot be treated as an exact science. The second major term of this definition is
"social reality," which can be described as the "reality as
understood through symbols humans use to represent it” (Palczewski et al. 2012).
This almost explicitly means that reality is subjective and that a person's
reality is defined, inescapably, by their culture, their past experience, and
essentially everything that makes them who they are. A philosophical debate
aside, the effect of rhetoric is reliant in part on personal identity, because
it is the filter through which every symbol employed by rhetoricians is
understood. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

these basic explanations of the terms of the definition of rhetoric, one can
begin to fully understand its impact and purpose in society. Rhetoric allows
human interaction to be effective, purposeful, and meaningful. The use of rhetoric
flourishes in societies where human interaction is encouraged and welcome and
does not fare so well in societies in which human interaction is censored. It
specifically flourishes in democratic societies because democratic societies
require it if they are to consider themselves to truly be a
"well-functioning civic community" (Palczewski et al. 2012).
Obviously, rhetoric can only be influential if people are open to different
ideas. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

laid out in the chapter: the rhetoric can attempt to create a virtual
experience for the audience, alter their perception, explain his argument,
formulate a belief for the audience, initiate action for the audience, and
hopefully spur maintained actions for the audience.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

reason for a specific theory and a concept that is being used in a research,
related to a practice problem. The
researcher will use the theoretical framework to connect the research to an
existing nursing theory (Grove, Burns, & Gray, 2013). A theory can be tested with the research to

<b><span lang="EN-US">Identified Article and Theoretical Framework<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="APA">
<span lang="EN-US">The article that I chose to use for this week’s
discussion is about the health literacy and self-care activities,
self-efficacy, and health-related outcome of patients with type 2 Diabetes. The
poor health literacy among the population will increase the complications,
decrease the patient outcomes, and escalates the health care costs. There are many factors that may lead to poor
health literacy <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="C428239387500000I0T428239416666667">(Weld, Padden,
Ramsey, & Garmon Bibb, 2008)</a>. I
work in a community hospital and our patient population has a higher number of
homeless population and Hispanic patients.
In this population, there is an identifiable knowledge deficit about
health is seen due to low economic status to access health care and minimal
knowledge due to language barriers.
Social cognitive theory was used in this research about self-care, self-efficacy,
and quality of life in patients with type 2 Diabetes. The study revealed that the health care
literacy is directly linked with patient’s self-efficacy. Self-efficacy can be
improved by health literacy about diet, self-monitoring blood glucose levels,
compliance with medications and treatment, and lifestyle modification with
exercise (Lee, Lee, & Moon, 2016). <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="center" class="APA" style="text-align: center;">
<b><span lang="EN-US">Framework and the Research<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="APA">
<span lang="EN-US">Health belief model (HBM) and social cognitive
theory (SCT) was used in the research.
The concept of HBM is when there is an increased patient awareness of a
disease condition; it will decrease the negative health outcomes (Weld.et.al,
2008). Albert Bandura developed the
SCT. Self-efficacy is one of the
constructs of this theory. SCT is being
used in many community-based researches that involve public health problems and
health literacy (Weld.et.al, 2008). The
selected research study was conducted to assess the health literacy level of
the participants in 12 items related to diabetes management and compared with
HbA1c results of the participants. The
study revealed that the self-efficacy and self-care activities were linked with
improved health care outcomes (Lee, Lee, & Moon, 2016). The selected framework was appropriate for
the research as it revealed the association of health literacy in improving the
patient outcomes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

social cognitive theory can be applied to a practical problem that relates to
health literacy. In my workplace, many
patients are readmitted with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). I can correlate the health literacy to
minimize the readmissions due to acute exacerbation of COPD. The readmissions can be minimized by
improving the health literacy of the population by incorporating HBM and SCT in
the clinical practice.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Treatment
of diabetes is known to be a lifelong commitment to medication, monitoring of
blood sugar and lifestyle modification. It involves a physical and emotional
commitment that may decrease the life expectancy of a diabetic patient. Due to their instability, diabetic patients
must maintain their blood sugar within a certain range to avoid hypo or
hyperglycemia. Non-adherence to
treatment leads to retinopathy (blindness), diabetic nephropathy (kidney
disease), neuropathy (amputation) strokes and heart diseases. Diabetes
shouldn't be a death sentence if there's a proper collaboration between a
patient's primary doctor, psychiatrist, and psychology. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">Depression
treatment, self- efficacy, peer support, lifestyle intervention, literacy, self
-management and involvement of social worker when put into consideration can
determine longevity in a patient with diabetes. </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Compliance with treatment in the care of a patient
with Type 2 Diabetes can be affected by implementing cognitive behavioral
therapy, mental contrasting, community resource involvement, and peer support.
Addition of supportive therapy increases compliance to therapy and longevity in
the adult with Type 2 diabetes. The responsibility of compliance with diabetic
care lies within the patient; patient must accept and be receptive to the
treatment of this chronic disease in other to have a positive and optimum
outcome.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;"> In
addition to aforementioned determinants, the role of social worker as part of
determinants of longevity in patients with diabetes was emphasized. Information from the (Avalon et al., 2008)
acknowledged diabetes as a biopsychosocial disease; that brings the role of
social worker in as an aid to assist the patients with diabetes to achieve
longevity. Management of diabetes involves a change in lifestyle that includes
keeping a low sugar diet, maintaining an exercise regime, monitoring daily
blood sugar and taking oral or insulin supplement". These changes are
overwhelming that the patients who did not have a support or an assist in
getting medical needs will not be able to perform. The social worker has a
unique impact in helping patients with diabetes to maintain a healthy lifestyle
(Avalon et al., 2008).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">According to (Yin et al, 2015), one method of reducing
hierarchical relationships, as related to diabetic care, and increasing
compliance in care of the adult with Type 2 diabetes has been accomplished in
“train the trainer” programs. These
programs enlist individuals with diabetes ready to be trained as a
trainer. “Train the trainer” programs
provide basic knowledge and emotional support to individuals with Type 2
diabetes. The training focuses on peer
to peer communication, diabetic diet reviews, weight management, and physical
activity. This “train the trainer”
method of diabetic teaching helped to increase compliance through per support,
thereby helping to increase longevity in the adult diagnosed with Type 2
diabetes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">As per (Chuenijid et al., 2014), Parental advice and
psycho-socio-economic support like self -value and esteem, group psychotherapy,
along with the use of antidepressant helped children in overcoming the impediment
of adherence. As patient move along his or her lifespan, he or she must be
willing to move more independently toward self- care to increase longevity. These findings affirmed that a collaboration
of care through multidisciplinary treatment, such as cognitive therapy, the
patient’s own acceptance of his diagnosis, and his willingness to participate
in treatment will improve treatment outcomes. Acceptance is demonstrated
through various self-care activities such as blood sugar monitoring, adherence
to medications and insulin when necessary.

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">The trainer will be taught how to be an empathetic
listener to be able to appropriately answer questions that the patient might
have. The training includes the use a licensed dietician to educate diabetic
patients on the misconception of diabetes diet, cooking tips and suggested ways
on weight management. Qualified nurse educator can deliver a training on
physical activity, precaution to take during exercise and how to acquired
motivation for daily exercise. (Yin et al, 2015).</span><span lang="EN-US"> </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Furthermore, individual’s confidence in the
ability to perform routine glucose monitoring, diet compliance and weight
reduction exercises and treatment will influence involvement in the overall
treatment. A patient with diabetes has to have self-efficacy, meaning believing
in one’s ability to succeed in a particular situation. If interventions are
made towards self-efficacy, then patients will display improvement in
self-management of chronic disease and positive health outcome.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">According to a study by </span><span lang="EN-US" style="line-height: 200%;">(McCleary-Jones, 2011), </span><span lang="EN-US">Diabetes
was an irreversible autoimmune disorder, the disease of the endocrine system
that developed when there is an impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose
tolerance. Due to these, the research was based on how the healthcare
professional can effectively improve the quality of life and increase the
longevity of diabetes patients. In the study, it was found out that to
determine the longevity of diabetes patients there must be collaboration in
treatment. The treatment needs to involve psychiatrist, psychology, social
worker and level of literacy of patient with type 2 diabetes. The study
emphasizes on Depression, Quality of life, Peer support, Literacy,
Self-efficacy, Lifestyle Intervention and Cognitive Behavioral treatment as the
intervention for the determinant of longevity for a patient with diabetes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Diabetes is known to be an irreversible autoimmune disorder
that attacks pancreatic bête cell and there are many compensatory hormonal and
inflammatory changes that may exacerbate depression in an adult with type 2
diabetes. If the healthcare provider can collaborate with each other on the
treatment of diabetes with the review of suggested determinants of longevity as
discussed above, a patient with diabetes will have a good quality of life and
have long longevity. When self-efficacy
is enhanced, stress management, goal setting, and decision- making will improve
metabolic control in people with diabetes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
