An intervention to promote learning in the affective domain would be encouraging the client to discuss his feelings about his health status. Asking the client what he believes he needs to know about the diagnosis would be an intervention to promote learning in the cognitive domain. Providing brochures on current exercises and nutrition guidelines would be an intervention to promote learning in the cognitive domain. Having the client return-demonstrate self-measurement of his blood pressure would be an intervention to promote learning in the psychomotor domain.
