a.social justice
b.autonomy

d.the objective standard
my answer is d
can someone please help
thanks
You'll have to go into your study materials for this one. Your text is obviously using terminology that is not commonly known among the rest of us.
If you can tell me how each of those four terms are defined in your text, I might be able to help you figure out if d is correct or not.
The correct answer is b. autonomy.
To arrive at this answer, we need to understand the concept of autonomy in the context of patients. Autonomy refers to the principle that individuals have the right to make decisions about their own healthcare and treatment. It emphasizes the patient's ability to act independently and make choices that align with their values and preferences.
To solve this question, you could eliminate options a, c, and d because they do not specifically relate to the patient's independence and decision-making. Once you have narrowed down the options to b and still have doubts, you may need to dive deeper into your knowledge of healthcare ethics or consult relevant resources to confirm that autonomy is indeed the correct answer.
