1. The nurse is assessing the factors contributing to the well-being of a newly admitted
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


client. Which of the following would the nurse identify as having a positive impact
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


on the individual's mental health?
ft ft ft ft ft


A) Not needing others for companionship ft ft ft ft


B) The ability to effectively manage stress ft ft ft ft ft


C) A family history of mental illness ft ft ft ft ft


D) Striving for total self- ft ft ft


reliance Ans: B ft ft


Feedback:
Individual factors influencing mental health include biologic makeup, autonomy,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


independence, self-esteem, capacity for growth, vitality, ability to find meaning in life,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


emotional resilience or hardiness, sense of belonging, reality orientation, and coping or
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


stress management abilities. Interpersonal factors such as intimacy and a balance of
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


separateness and connectedness are both needed for good mental health, and therefore a
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft



Page f t 1

, healthy person would need others for companionship. A family history of mental illness
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


could relate to the biologic makeup of an individual, which may have a negative
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


impact on an individual's mental health, as well as a negative impact on an
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


individual's interpersonal and socialñcultural factors of health. Total self-reliance is
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


not possible, and a positive social/cultural factor is access to adequate resources.
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft




2. Which of the following statements about mental illness are true? Select all that apply.
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


A) Mental illness can cause significant distress, impaired functioning, or both. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


B) Mental illness is only due to social/cultural factors. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


C) Social/cultural factors that relate to mental illness include excessive dependency ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


on or withdrawal from relationships.
ft ft ft ft ft


D) Individuals suffering from mental illness are usually able to cope effectively with ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


daily life. ft ft


E) Individuals suffering from mental illness may experience dissatisfaction with ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


relationships and self.
ft ft ft


Ans: A, D, E ft ft ft


Feedback:
Mental illness can cause significant distress, impaired functioning, or both. Mental
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


illness may be related to individual, interpersonal, or social/cultural factors. Excessive
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


dependency on or withdrawal from relationships are interpersonal factors that relate to
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


mental illness. Individuals suffering from mental illness can feel overwhelmed with
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


daily life. Individuals suffering from mental illness may experience dissatisfaction with
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


relationships and self.
ft ft ft



3. Which of the following are true regarding mental health and mental illness?
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


A) Behavior that may be viewed as acceptable in one culture is always unacceptable ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


in other cultures.ft ft ft


B) It is easy to determine if a person is mentally healthy or mentally ill.
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


C) In most cases, mental health is a state of emotional, psychological, and social
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


wellness evidenced by satisfying interpersonal relationships, effective behavior
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


and coping, positive self-concept, and emotional stability.
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


D) Persons who engage in fantasies are mentally ill. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


Ans: C
ft ft


Feedback:
What one society may view as acceptable and appropriate behavior, another society may
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


see that as maladaptive, and inappropriate. Mental health and mental illness are
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


difficult to define precisely. In most cases, mental health is a state of emotional,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


psychological, and social wellness evidenced by satisfying interpersonal relationships,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


effective behavior and coping, positive self-concept, and emotional stability. Persons
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


who engage in fantasies may be mentally healthy, but the inability to distinguish
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


reality from fantasy is an individual factor that may contribute to mental illness.
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft




4. A client grieving the recent loss of her husband asks if she is becoming mentally ill
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


because she is so sad. The nurse's best response would be,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


A) ìYou may have a temporary mental illness because you are experiencing so much
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


pain.î ft


B) ìYou are not mentally ill. This is an expected reaction to the loss you have
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


experienced.î ft




Page f t 2

, C) ìWere you generally dissatisfied with your relationship before your husband's
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


death?î ft


D) ìTry not to worry about that right now. You never know what the future
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


brings.î Ans: B
ft ft ft


Feedback:
Mental illness includes general dissatisfaction with self, ineffective relationships,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


ineffective coping, and lack of personal growth. Additionally the behavior must not be
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


culturally expected. Acute grief reactions are expected and therefore not considered
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


mental illness. False reassurance or overanalysis does not accurately address the client's
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


concerns.
ft



5. The nurse consults the DSM for which of the following purposes?
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


A) To devise a plan of care for a newly admitted client
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


B) To predict the client's prognosis of treatment outcomes
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


C) To document the appropriate diagnostic code in the client's medical record
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


D) To serve as a guide for client assessment
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


Ans: D
ft ft


Feedback:
The DSM provides standard nomenclature, presents defining characteristics, and
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


identifies underlying causes of mental disorders. It does not provide care plans or
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


prognostic outcomes of treatment. Diagnosis of mental illness is not within the
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


generalist RN's scope of practice, so documenting the code in the medical record would
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


be inappropriate.
ft ft




6. Which would be a reason for a student nurse to use the DSM?
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


A) Identifying the medical diagnosis ft ft ft


B) Treat clients ft


C) Evaluate treatments ft


D) Understand the reason for the admission and the nature of psychiatric illnesses. ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


Ans: D
ft ft


Feedback:
Although student nurses do not use the DSM to diagnose clients, they will find it a
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


helpful resource to understand the reason for the admission and to begin building
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


knowledge about the nature of psychiatric illnesses. Identifying the medical diagnosis,
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


treating, and evaluating treatments are not a part of the nursing process.
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft




7. The legislation enacted in 1963 was largely responsible for which of the following shifts
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


in care for the mentally ill?
ft ft ft ft ft ft


A) The widespread use of community-based services
ft ft ft ft ft


B) The advancement in pharmacotherapies ft ft ft


C) Increased access to hospitalization ft ft ft


D) Improved rights for clients in long-term institutional care ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


Ans: A
ft ft


Feedback:
The Community Mental Health Centers Construction Act of 1963 accomplished the
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


release of individuals from long-term stays in state institutions, the decrease in
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


admissions to hospitals, and the development of community-based services as an
ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft ft


alternative to hospital care.
