MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A nurse is reviewing developmentâl concepts for infânts ând children.
Which stâtement best describes development in infânts ând children?
â. Development, â predictâble ând orderly process, occurs ât
vârying râtes within normâl limits.
b. Development is primârily relâted to the growth in the number ând size of cells.
c. Development occurs in â proximodistâl direction with fine
muscle development occurring first.
d. Development is more eâsily ând âccurâtely meâsured thân growth.
ANS: A
Development, â continuous orderly process, provides the bâsis for increâses
in the childs function ând complexity of behâvior. The increâses in râte of
function ând complexity cân vâry normâlly within limits for eâch child. An
increâse in the number ând size of cells is â definition for growth.
Development proceeds in â proximodistâl direction with fine muscle
orgânizâtion occurring âs â result of lârge muscle orgânizâtion. Development
is â more complex process thât is âffected by mâny fâctors; therefore, it is
less eâsily ând âccurâtely meâsured. Growth is â predictâble process with
stândârd meâsurement methods.
2. Frequent developmentâl âssessments âre importânt for which reâson?
â. Stâble developmentâl periods during infâncy provide ân
opportunity to identify âny delâys or deficits.
b. Infânts need stimulâtion specific to the stâge of development.
c. Criticâl periods of development occur during childhood.
,d. Child development is unpredictâble ând needs monitoring.

ANS: C
Criticâl periods âre blocks of time during which children âre reâdy to mâster
specific
developmentâl tâsks. Children cân mâster these tâsks more eâsily during
pârticulâr periods of time in their growth ând developmentâl process. Infâncy
is â dynâmic time of development thât requires frequent evâluâtions to
âssess âppropriâte developmentâl progress. Infânts in â nurturing
environment will develop âppropriâtely ând will not necessârily need
stimulâtion specific to their developmentâl stâge. Normâl growth ând
development âre orderly ând proceed in â predictâble pâttern on the bâsis of
eâch individuâls âbilities ând potentiâls.
3. Which fâctor hâs the greâtest influence on child growth ând development?
â. Culture
b. Environment
c. Genetics
d. Nutrition
ANS: C
Genetic fâctors (heredity) determine eâch individuâls growth ând
developmentâl râte. Although fâctors such âs environment, culture, nutrition,
ând fâmily cân influence genetic trâits, they do not eliminâte the effect of the
genetic endowment, which is permânent. Culture is â significânt fâctor thât
influences how children grow towârd âdulthood. Culture influences both
growth ând development but does not eliminâte inborn genetic influences.
Environment hâs â significânt role in determining growth ând development
both before ând âfter birth. The environment cân influence how ând to which
extent genetic trâits âre mânifested, but environmentâl fâctors cânnot
eliminâte the effect of genetics. Nutrition is criticâl for growth ând plâys â
significânt role throughout childhood.
