1. As part of a class activity, nursing students are engaged in a small group discussion
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


about the epidemiology of mental illness. Which statement best explains the importance of
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


epidemiology in understanding the impact of mental disorders? Epidemiology:
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


A) Helps promote understanding of the patterns of occurrence associated with mental disorders.

Feedback: Epidemiology is the study of patterns of disease distribution and determinants of ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


health within populations. It contributes to the overall understanding of the mental health status
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


of population groups, or aggregates, and it examines the associations among possible factors.

Epidemiology does not explain research findings about neurophysiology, provide theoretical

explanations for why specific disorders occur, or predict recovery.

2. A nurse is working in a community mental health center that provides care to a large
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


sspopulation of people of Asian descent. When developing programs for this community, which of the
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


following would be most important for the nurse to address?

Feedback: Although public stigma and self-stigma may be areas needing to be addressed, in this ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


cultural group, label avoidance would be most important. Label avoidance or avoiding
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


treatment/care so as not to be labeled mentally ill is a type of stigma that influences why
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


so few people with mental health problems actually receive assistance. Asian cultures commonly
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


have negative views of mental illness that influence the willingness of members to seek treatment;
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


they possibly ignore the symptoms or refuse to seek treatment because of this stigma. Negative life
ss ss ss ss ss s s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


events affect anyone, not just those of the Asian culture.

3. A nursing student is assigned to care for a client diagnosed with schizophrenia. When talking

referring to the client?

Feedback: Just as a person with diabetes should not be referred to as a <diabetic= but rather as a ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


<person with diabetes,= a person with a mental disorder should never be referred to as a
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


<schizophrenic= or <bipolar,= but rather as a <person with schizophrenia= or a <person

with bipolar disorder.= Doing so helps to counteract the negative effects of stigma.

4. A nursing student is reviewing journal articles about major depression. One of the articles
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss

student interprets this as which of the following?

cases that have occurred within a clearly defined time period. The most common time period
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


evaluated is 1 year.

Rate reflects the proportion of cases in the population compared with the total population. Prevalence

individuals in the population that have a disorder at a specific point in time.

5. While working in a community mental health treatment center, the nurse overhears one of
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


the receptionists saying that one of the clients is <really psycho.= Later in the day, the
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


ssnurse talks with the receptionist about the comment. This action by the nurse demonstrates an
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


attempt to address which issue?

Feedback: The receptionist's negative effects of stigmatization, more specifically public stigma. ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


Self- stigma reflects a person's internalization of a negative stereotype; that is, the person with the
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


mental illness begins to believe that he or she is what the public thinks he or she is. Label
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


avoidance
