MULTIPLE CHOICE y




1. A nurse is reviewing developmental concepts for infants and children. Which statement best
y y y y y y y y y y y y



describes development in infants and children?
y y y y y y




a. Development, a predictable and orderly process, occurs at varying rates within y y y y y y y y y y


normal limits.
y y




b. Development is primarily related to the growth in the number and size of cells.
y y y y y y y y y y y y y




c. Development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle development y y y y y y y y y


occurring first.
y y




d. Development is more easily and accurately measured than growth. y y y y y y y y




ANS: A y




Development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis for increases in the childs
y y y y y y y y y y y y



function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can vary
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



normally within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is a definition
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



for growth. Development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle organization
y y y y y y y y y y y y



occurring as a result of large muscle organization. Development is a more complex process that
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



is affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and accurately measured. Growth is a
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



predictable process with standard measurement methods.
y y y y y y




2. Frequent developmental assessments are important for which reason?
y y y y y y y




a. Stable developmental periods during infancy provide an opportunity to identify
y y y y y y y y y


any delays or deficits.
y y y y




b. Infants need stimulation specific to the stage of development.
y y y y y y y y




c. Critical periods of development occur during childhood.
y y y y y y




d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

ANS: C y




Critical periods are blocks of time during which children are ready to master specific
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



developmental tasks. Children can master these tasks more easily during particular periods of
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



time in their growth and developmental process. Infancy is a dynamic time of development that
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



requires frequent evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress. Infants in a nurturing
y y y y y y y y y y y y



environment will develop appropriately and will not necessarily need stimulation specific to their
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



developmental stage. Normal growth and development are orderly and proceed in a predictable
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



pattern on the basis of each individuals abilities and potentials.
y y y y y y y y y y




3. Which factor has the greatest influence on child growth and development?
y y y y y y y y y y




a. Culture

b. Environment

c. Genetics

d. Nutrition


ANS: C y




Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals growth and developmental rate. Although
y y y y y y y y y y



factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic traits, they do
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



not eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent. Culture is a significant
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



factor that influences how children grow toward adulthood. Culture influences both growth and
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



development but does not eliminate inborn genetic influences. Environment has a significant role
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



in determining growth and development both before and after birth. The environment can
y y y y y y y y y y y y y



influence how and to which extent genetic traits are manifested, but environmental factors cannot
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



eliminate the effect of genetics. Nutrition is critical for growth and plays a significant role
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



throughout childhood.
y y




4. A nurse is planning a teaching session with a child. According to Piagetian theory, the period
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



of cognitive development in which the child is able to distinguish fact from fantasy is the
y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y y



y period of cognitive development.
