Question 1

In Sir Mason Durie's Te Whare Tapa Whā model of health, which dimension specifically represents emotional and mental well-being, including thoughts, feelings, and self-talk?

Taha Tinana Taha Hinengaro Taha Wairua Taha Whānau

Correct Answer:

Taha Hinengaro

Question 2

An adolescent athlete sustains a severe knee injury that prevents them from participating in team sports for six months. Soon after, they experience low mood and feel disconnected from their teammate peer group. Which key principle of Te Whare Tapa Whā does this scenario best illustrate?

Physical injury only affects Taha Tinana, while emotional states remain independent. The four dimensions of Hauora are interconnected, so a change in one dimension impacts the others. Taha Wairua replaces Taha Hinengaro whenever physical illness or injury occurs. Taha Whānau is unaffected by individual physical injuries or personal setbacks.

Correct Answer:

The four dimensions of Hauora are interconnected, so a change in one dimension impacts the others.

Question 3

Which aspect of well-being is most directly aligned with Taha Wairua in the context of NCEA Level 1 Health Studies?

Cardiovascular endurance and muscular strength Sense of identity, core personal values, purpose, and cultural connection Conflict resolution techniques used with peers Daily dietary calorie intake and hydration levels

Correct Answer:

Sense of identity, core personal values, purpose, and cultural connection

Question 4

During a school camp, a student participates in a traditional powhiri and learns about their ancestral heritage (whakapapa). The student reports feeling a deep sense of belonging and pride. Which two dimensions of Hauora are most prominent in this experience?

Taha Tinana and Taha Hinengaro Taha Wairua and Taha Whānau Taha Tinana and Taha Wairua Taha Hinengaro and Taha Tinana

Correct Answer:

Taha Wairua and Taha Whānau

Question 5

According to Te Whare Tapa Whā, what happens to the overall stability of a person's well-being if one wall (dimension) is neglected or severely damaged?

The remaining three walls automatically strengthen to compensate without any total loss of balance. The overall structure of well-being becomes unstable, making the person more vulnerable to distress. The person's physical health (Taha Tinana) is completely unaffected as long as Taha Hinengaro is strong. The model converts into a linear hierarchy where Taha Whānau becomes the sole priority.

Correct Answer:

The overall structure of well-being becomes unstable, making the person more vulnerable to distress.
