A nursing instructor is teaching about the typical grieving behaviors of Chinese Americans. Which student statement would indicate that more instruction is necessary?
1. "In this culture, the color red is associated with death and is considered bad luck."
2. "In this culture, there is an innate fear of death."
3. "In this culture, emotions are not expressed openly."
4. "In this culture, death and bereavement are centered on ancestor worship."

Rationale: The nursing instructor should evaluate that more instruction is needed if a student states that the color red is associated with death and bad luck in the Chinese culture. Chinese Americans consider the color white as associated with death and is considered bad luck. Red is the ultimate color of luck in this culture. Chinese Americans also avoid purchasing insurance because of the fear that they may be inviting death.
