The nurse has drawn an ecomap to assist the family who is experiencing some relationship difficulties. What purpose does the ecomap serve to this family? The ecomap:

1. Diagrams the family tree.
2. Demonstrates how healthy the family is.
3. Prioritizes family relationships.
4. Depicts the relationships within and outside the family.


Answer: 4
Explanation: 4. An ecomap is a visual representation depicting relationships of family members with each other and with outside forces. A genogram, not an ecomap, is a diagram of a family tree. An ecomap does not demonstrate health and does not prioritize family relationships.
