Actively listening to the parents talk about their lives and health concerns will provide the nurse with insights regarding the cultural and personal values of the parents. This approach is more relevant and practical compared to the other options provided. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator survey is not relevant to this situation, reading the documented health histories of parents and grandparents may not be sufficient to determine their beliefs and values, and reviewing traditional health practices of the ethnic group may not be accurate as cultural practices and beliefs can vary within an ethnic group.
