The nurse using Westerhoff's stages of faith should place a 13-year-old patient in which stage?
1. Experienced faith
2. New faith
3. Owned faith
4. Affiliative faith
Correct Answer: 1
Westerhoff's stage of experienced faith, occurring in infancy and early adolescence, is described as a time when the individual experiences faith through interaction with others who are living a particular faith tradition. Owned faith in middle adulthood and old age puts faith into personal and social action. Affiliative faith in late adolescence is participating in activities that characterize a particular faith tradition. New faith is not one of Westerhoff's stages of faith.
