1. A nurse is reviewing developmentalconcepts for infants and children. Which statement best

hdescribes development in infants and children?
h h h h h
a. Development, a predictable and orderly process, occurs at varying rates within h h h h h h h h h h
normal limits.

b. Development is primarilyrelated to the growth in the number and size ofcells. h h h h h h h h h h h h h
c. Development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle development h h h h h h h h h
occurring first.

ANS: A h
Development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis for increases in the childs function
h h h h h h h h h h h h h
hand complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can vary normally
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is a definition for growth.
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
hDevelopment proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle organization occurring as a
h h h h h h h h h h h h
result of large muscle organization. Development is a more complex process that is affected by many
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
hfactors; therefore, it is less easily and accurately measured. Growth is a predictable process with
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
hstandard measurement methods. h h
2. Frequent developmental assessments are important for which reason?
h h h h h h h
a. Stable developmental periods during infancy provide an opportunity to identify
h h h h h h h h h
any delays or deficits.
h h h h
b. Infants need stimulation specific to the stage of development.
h h h h h h h h
c. Critical periods ofdevelopment occur during childhood. h h h h h h
d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

ANS: C h
Critical periods are blocks of time during which children are ready to master specific developmental
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
tasks. Children can master these tasks more easily during particular periods of time in their growth
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
and developmental process. Infancy is a dynamic time of development that requires frequent
h h h h h h h h h h h h h
evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress. Infants in a nurturing environment will
h h h h h h h h h h h h
develop appropriately and will not necessarily need stimulation specific to their developmental stage.
h h h h h h h h h h h h h
Normal growth and development are orderly and proceed in a predictable pattern on the basis of each
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
individuals abilities and potentials.
h h h h
3. Which factor has the greatest influence on child growth and development?
h h h h h h h h h h
a. Culture
b. Environment
c. Genetics
d. Nutrition
ANS: C h
Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals growth and developmental rate. Although
h h h h h h h h h h
factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic traits, they do not
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent. Culture is a significant factor that
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
influences how children grow toward adulthood. Culture influences both growth and development
h h h h h h h h h h h h
but does not eliminate inborn genetic influences. Environment has a significant role in determining
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
growth and development both before and after birth. The environment can influence how and to
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
which extent genetic traits are manifested, but environmental factors cannot eliminate the effect of
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
genetics. Nutrition is critical for growth and plays a significant role throughout childhood.

4. A nurse is planning a teaching session with a child. According to Piagetian theory, the period of
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
cognitive development in which the child is able to distinguish fact from fantasy is the period
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h
of cognitive development.
