MULTIPLE CHOICE f




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



describes development in infants and children?
f f f f f f




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


normal limits.
f f




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




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


occurring first.
f f




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




ANS: A f




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



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



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



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



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



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



predictable process with standard measurement methods.
f f f f f f




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




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


any delays or deficits.
f f f f




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




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




d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

ANS: C f




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



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



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



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



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



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



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




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




a. Culture

b. Environment

c. Genetics

d. Nutrition


ANS: C f




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



factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic traits, they do not
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f



eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent. Culture is a significant factor
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f



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



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



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



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



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



throughout childhood.

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



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



f period of cognitive development.
