Q1. Which comment made by a client in her first trimester indicates ambivalent feelings?
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



a. My body is changing so quickly.
dn dn dn dn dn dn



b. I havent felt well since this pregnancy began.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



c. Im concerned about the amount of weight Ive gained.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



d. I wanted to become pregnant, but Im scared about being a mother.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: d. I wanted to become pregnant, but Im scared about being a mother. Ambivalenc
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



e refers to conflicting feelings. Expressing a concern about being a mother indicates conflicting or ambi
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



valent feelings. Not feeling well since the pregnancy began does not reflect conflicting feelings. The wo
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



man is trying to confirm the pregnancy when she is stating the rapid changes to her body. She is not ex
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



pressing conflicting feelings. By expressing concerns over gaining weight, which is normal, the woman
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



is trying to confirm the pregnancy.
dn dn dn dn dn




Q2. A client who is 7 months pregnant states, Im worried that something will happen to my b
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



aby. Which is the nurses best response?
dn dn dn dn dn dn



a. Your baby is doing fine.
dn dn dn dn dn



b. Tell me about your concerns.
dn dn dn dn dn



c. There is nothing to worry about.
dn dn dn dn dn dn



d. The doctor is taking good care of you and your baby.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: b. Tell me about your concerns. Encouraging the client to discuss her feelings is t
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



he best approach. The nurse should not disregard or belittle the clients feelings. Responding that your b
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



aby is doing fine disregards the clients feelings and treats them as unimportant. Responding that there is
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



nothing to worry about does not answer the clients concerns. Saying that the doctor is taking good care
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



of you and your baby is belittling the clients concerns.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




Q3. An expectant client asks the nurse about the behavior of mimicry. Which is an example o
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



f mimicry that the nurse should relate to the client?
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn

,a. Daydreaming about the newborn
dn dn dn dn



b. Imagining oneself as a good mother
dn dn dn dn dn dn



c. Babysitting for a neighbors children
dn dn dn dn dn



d. Wearing maternity clothes before they are needed
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: d. Wearing maternity clothes before they are needed Mimicry involves observing
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



and copying the behaviors of other women who are pregnant or are mothers. Wearing maternity clothes
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn d



nbefore they are needed helps the expectant mother feel what its like to be obviously pregnant. Daydrea
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



ming is a type of fantasy in which the woman tries out a variety of behaviors in preparation for mother
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



hood. Imagining herself as a good mother is the womans effort to look for a good role fit. She observes
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



behavior of other mothers and compares them with her own expectations. Babysitting other children is
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



a form of role-playing in which the woman practices the expected role of motherhood.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




Q4. What is the term for the step in maternal role attainment that relates to the woman givin
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



g up certain aspects of her previous life?
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



a. Fantasy
dn



b. Grief work

c. Role-playing
dn



d. Looking for a fit
dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: b. Grief work The woman experiences sadness as she realizes that she must give
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



up certain aspects of her previous self and that she can never go back. This is called grief work. Fantasi
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



es allow the woman to try on a variety of possibilities or behaviors. This usually deals with how the ch
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



ild will look and the characteristics of the child. Role-
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



playing involves searching for opportunities to provide care for infants in the presence of another perso
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



n. Looking for a fit is when the woman observes the behaviors of mothers and compares them with her
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn d



nown expectations. dn




Q5. Which situation best describes a man trying on fathering behaviors?
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn

dn dn dn dn dn



b. Spending more time with his siblings
dn dn dn dn dn dn



c. Coaching a little league baseball team
dn dn dn dn dn dn



d. Exhibiting physical symptoms related to pregnancy
dn dn dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: c. Coaching a little league baseball team Coaching a little league baseball team sh
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



ows interaction with children and assuming the behavior and role of a father. This best describes a man
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn d



ntrying on the role of being a father. Men do not normally read information that is provided in advance.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn d



nThe nurse should be prepared to present information after the baby is born, when it is more relevant. T

dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



y is called couvade.

Q6. Margaret, a 36-year-old divorcee with a successful modeling career, finds out that her 18-
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



year-
old married daughter is expecting her first child. Which is a major factor in determining how
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



Margaret will respond to becoming a grandmother?
dn dn dn dn dn dn



a. Her age
dn dn

, b. Her career
dn dn



c. Being divorced
dn dn



d. Age of the daughter
dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: a. Her age Age is a major factor in determining the emotional response of prospe
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



ctive grandparents. Young grandparents may not be happy with the stereotype of grandparents as being
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



old. Career responsibilities may have demands that make the grandparents not as accessible but are not
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



a major factor in determining the womans response to becoming a grandmother. Being divorced is not a
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



major factor that determines the adaptation of grandparents. The age of the daughter is not a major fact
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



or that determines the adaptation of grandparents. The age of the grandparent is a major factor.

Q7. Which comment made by a new mother to her own mother is most likely to encourage th
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



e grandmothers participation in the infants care?
dn dn dn dn dn dn



a. Could you help me with the housework today?
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



b. The baby is spitting up a lot. What should I do?
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn

dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



d. The baby has a stomachache. Ill call the nurse to find out what to do.
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: b. The baby is spitting up a lot. What should I do? Looking to the grandmother f
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



or advice encourages her to become involved in the care of the infant. Housework does not encourage t
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



he grandmother to participate in the infants care. Getting Johns mother to help and calling the nurse ab
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



out advice excludes the grandmother.
dn dn dn dn




Q8. Which is a major concern among members of lower socioeconomic groups?
dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn

dn dn dn dn



b. Meeting health needs as they occur
dn dn dn dn dn dn



c. Maintaining an optimistic view of life
dn dn dn dn dn dn



d. Maintaining group health insurance for their families
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn




[Verified Solution]: b. Meeting health needs as they occur Because of their economic uncertainty, low
dn dndn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



er socioeconomic groups place more emphasis on meeting the needs of the present rather than on future
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



goals. Lower socioeconomic groups may value health care but generally cannot afford preventive healt
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



h care. They may struggle for basic needs and often do not see a way to improve their situation. It is di
dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn dn



fficult to maintain optimism. Lower socioeconomic groups usually do not have group health insurance.
