MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. A group of nursing students are discussing the impact of nonnursing theories in clinical
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



practice. The students would be correct if they chose which theoryto prioritize patient care?
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



a. Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory J J



b. Paul’s Critical-Thinking Theory J J



c. Maslow’s Hierarchyof Needs J J J



d. Rosenstock’s Health Belief Model J J J




ANS: C J



Maslow’s hierarchy of needs specifies the psychological and physiologic factors that affect each
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



person’s physical and mental health. The nurse’s understanding of these factors helps with
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



formulating Nursing diagnoses that address the patient’s needs and values to prioritize care.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory of Development and Socialization is based on individuals’
J J J J J J J J J J J



interacting and learning about their world. Nurses use concepts of developmental theory to
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



critically think in providing care for their patients at various stages of their lives.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



Rosenstock (1974) developed the psychological Health Belief Model. The model addresses possible
J J J J J J J J J J J J



reasons for why a patient may not comply with recommended health promotion behaviors. This
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



model is especially useful to nurses as they educate patients.

2. A nursing student is preparing study notes from a recent lecture in nursing history. The
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



student would credit Florence Nightingale for which definition of nursing?
J J J J J J J J J



a. The imbalance between the patient and the environment decreases the capacity for
J J J J J J J J J J J J



health.
b. The nurse needs to focus on interpersonal processes between nurse and patient.
J J J J J J J J J J J



c. The nurse assists the patient with essential functions toward independence.
J J J J J J J J J



d. Human beings are interacting in continuous motion as energy fields.
J J J J J J J J J




ANS: A J



Florence Nightingale’s (1860) concept of the environment emphasized prevention and clean air,
J J J J J J J J J J J J



water, and housing. This theory states that the imbalance between the patient and the
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



environment decreases the capacity for health and does not allow for conservation of energy.
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



Hildegard Peplau (1952) focused on the roles played by the nurse and the interpersonal process
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



between a nurse and a patient. Virginia Henderson described the nurse’s role as substitutive
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



(doing for the person), supplementary (helping the person), or complementary (working with
J J J J J J J J J J J J



the person), with the goal of independence for the patient. Martha Rogers (1970) developed the
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



Science of Unitary Human Beings. She stated that human beings and their environments are
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



interacting in continuous motion as infinite energy fields.

J J J J J J J J J J J J



Women’s Hospital in 1873, and Lena Higbee, superintendent of the U.S. Navy Nurse Corps,
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J

Benner’s model identifies five levels of proficiency: novice, advanced beginner, competent,
J J J J J J J J J J J



proficient, and expert. The student nurse progresses from novice to advanced beginner during
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



nursing school and attains the competent level after approximately 2 to 3 years of work
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



experience after graduation. To obtain the RN credential, a person must graduate from an
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



approved school of nursing and pass a state licensing examination called the National Council
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) usually taken soon after

8. The nurse is caring for a patient who refuses two units of packed red blood cells. When the
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



nurse notifies the health care provider of the patient’s decision, the nurse is acting in which
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



role?
a. Manager
b. Change agent J



c. Advocate
d. Educator
ANS: C J



As the patient’s advocate, the nurse interprets information and provides the necessary
J J J J J J J J J J J J



education. The nurse then accepts and respects the patient’s decisions even if they are different
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



from the nurse’s own beliefs. The nurse supports the patient’s wishes and communicates them to
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



other health care providers. A nurse manages all of the activities and treatments for patients. In
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



the role of change agent, the nurse works with patients to address their health concerns and with
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



staff members to address change in an organization or within a community. The nurse ensures
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



that the patient receives sufficient information on which to base consent for care and related
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



treatment. Education becomes a major focus of discharge planning so that patients will be
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



prepared to handle their own needs at home.J J J J J J J

Evidence-based practice (EBP) is an integration of the best-available research evidence with J J J J J J J J J J J J



clinical judgment about a specific patient situation. The nurse assesses current and past research,
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



clinical guidelines, and other resources to identifyrelevant literature. The application of EBP
J J J J J J J J J J J J J



includes critically appraising the evidence to assess its validity, designing a change for practice,
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



assessing the need for change and identifying a problem, and integrating and maintaining change
J J J J J J J J J J J J J J



while monitoring process and outcomes by reevaluating the application of evidence and
J J J J J J J J J J J J



assessing areas for improvement. J J J
