,Section A - Health
Q1.
A community health initiative aims to reduce health disparities in older adults. Which
approach best aligns with the World Health Organization's Active Aging framework?
A. Focusing primarily on disease B. Implementing policies that optimize
management and acute care services opportunities for health, participation, and
security
C. Prioritizing cognitive assessments over D. Encouraging relocation to assisted living
physical health screenings facilities for all older adults
Correct: B - Implementing policies that optimize opportunities for health, participation,
and security
Rationale:The Active Aging framework emphasizes optimizing opportunities for health,
participation, and security to enhance quality of life. Option A is disease-focused, C neglects
physical health, and D is not universally appropriate.
Q2.
Which theoretical perspective best explains the phenomenon where emerging adults often
feel 'in-between'-not fully adult but no longer adolescent?
A. Erikson's stage of intimacy vs. isolation B. Levinson's seasons of life theory
C. Arnett's emerging adulthood theory D. Piaget's formal operational stage
Correct: C - Arnett's emerging adulthood theory
Rationale:Arnett's theory specifically describes emerging adulthood as a period of identity
exploration, instability, and feeling in-between. Erikson, Levinson, and Piaget address other
aspects of development.
Q3.
In a longitudinal study, a researcher finds that individuals who had secure attachments in
infancy exhibit greater emotional regulation in adulthood. This finding most directly
supports which concept?
A. Cumulative continuity B. Interactional continuity
C. Differential susceptibility D. Epigenetic inheritance
Correct: A - Cumulative continuity
Page 3
, Section A - Health
Rationale: Cumulative continuity refers to how early experiences shape later outcomes
through a chain of events. Interactional continuity involves reciprocal interactions, differential
susceptibility is about sensitivity to environment, and epigenetic inheritance is biological.
Q4.
Which of the following is a key limitation of using cross-sectional designs to study
developmental change?
A. They are more time-consuming and B. They cannot establish causal
expensive than longitudinal designs relationships
C. They are subject to cohort effects D. They require large sample sizes
Correct: C - They are subject to cohort effects
Rationale:Cross-sectional studies compare different age groups at one time point, so
differences may be due to cohort effects (generational differences) rather than true
developmental change. They can establish correlations but not causation, but the key
limitation is cohort effects.
Q5.
Which nursing intervention is most appropriate for an older adult experiencing delirium
superimposed on dementia?
A. Administering antipsychotics as first-line B. Using physical restraints to prevent falls
treatment
C. Identifying and treating the underlying D. Encouraging consistent use of sedatives
cause for sleep
Correct: C - Identifying and treating the underlying cause
Rationale:Delirium is often reversible if the underlying cause (e.g., infection, electrolyte
imbalance) is treated. Antipsychotics are used only for severe agitation, restraints increase
delirium, and sedatives can worsen confusion.
Q6.
A nurse is teaching a group of adolescents about brain development. Which statement
accurately reflects current neuroscience?
A. The prefrontal cortex is fully developed by B. The limbic system matures earlier than
age 12 the prefrontal cortex
C. Myelination is complete by adolescence D. Synaptic pruning occurs primarily in early
childhood
Correct: B - The limbic system matures earlier than the prefrontal cortex
