MULTIPLE CHOICE W 1




1. The nurse is conducting an interview with a woman who has recently learned that she is preg
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1




nant and who has come to the clinic today to begin prenatal care. The woman states that she and
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




her husband are excited about the pregnancy but have a few questions. She looks nervously at h
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




er hands during the interview and sighs loudly. Considering the concept of communication, wh
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




ich statement does the nurse know to be most accurate? The woman is:
W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




a. Excited about her pregnancy but nervous about the labor. W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




b. Exhibiting verbal and nonverbal behaviors that do not match. W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




c. Excited about her pregnancy, but her husband is not and this is upsetting t

o her. d. W1 W1




Not excited about her pregnancy but believes the nurse will negatively respo

nd to her if she states this.
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




ANS: B W1




Communication is all behaviors, conscious and unconscious, verbal and nonverbal. All behaviors W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1




have meaning. Her behavior does not imply that she is nervous about labor, upset by her husband
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1




, or worried about the nurses response.
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




2. Receiving is a part of the communication process. Which receiver is most likely to W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1




misinterpret a message sent by a health care professional?
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




a. Well-adjusted adolescent who came in for a sports physical W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




b. Recovering alcoholic who came in for a basic physical examination W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




c. Man whose wife has just been diagnosed with lung cancer
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1




d.
Man with a hearing impairment who uses sign language to communicate and who has an interpre

ter with him W1 W1




ANS: C W1




The receiver attaches meaning determined by his or her experiences, culture, self-
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




W concept, and current physical and emotional states. The man whose wife has just been diagno

sed with lung cancer may be experiencing emotions that affect his receiving.
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1

d. Arranges seating across a desk or table to allow the patient some personal s W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1




pace
ANS: A W1




The nurse should reduce noise by turning off the television, radio, and other unnecessary equip

ment, because multiple stimuli are confusing. The interviewer and patient should be approximat

ely 4 to 5 feet apart; the room should be well-

lit, enabling the interviewer and patient to see each other clearly. Having a table or desk in betw

een the two people creates the idea of a barrier; equal-status seating, at eye level, is better.
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1

, 4. In an interview, the nurse may find it necessary to take notes to aid his or her memory lat
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1




er. Which statement is trueregarding note-taking?

a. Note-

W1 W1 W1




c.
Note-
taking allows the nurse to shift attention away from the patient, resulting in an

increased comfort level. W1 W1




d.
Note-
taking allows the nurse to break eye contact with the patient, which may increa

W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




ANS: A W1




The use of history forms and note-
W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1




taking may be unavoidable. However, the nurse must be aware that note-
W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1




taking during the interview has disadvantages. It breaks eye contact too often and shifts the a
W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1




ttention away from the patient, which diminishes his or her sense of importance. Notetaking ma

patients nonverbal behavior. W1 W1




5. The nurse asks, I would like to ask you some questions about your health and your usual daily a
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1




ctivities so that we can better plan your stay here. This question is found at the

When gathering a complete history, the nurse should give the reason for the interview during the

opening or introduction phase of the interview, not during or at the end of the interview.
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1 W1 W1 W1




6. A woman has just entered the emergency department after being battered by her husband. The
W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W1 W 1 W1

7. During an interview, the nurse states, You mentioned having shortness of breath. Tell me
