fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff




MULTIPLE CHOICE fff




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



fff best describes development in infants and children?
fff fff fff fff fff fff




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


within normal limits.
fff fff fff




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




c. Development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff


development occurring first.
fff fff fff




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




ANS: A fff




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



fff function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff vary normally within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff a definition for growth. Development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff muscle organization occurring as a result of large muscle organization. Development is a
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



more complex process that is affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff accurately measured. Growth is a predictable process with standard measurement methods.
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff




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




a. Stable developmental periods during infancy provide an opportunity to
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff


identify any delays or deficits.
fff fff fff fff fff




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




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




d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

ANS: C fff




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



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



fff of time in their growth and developmental process. Infancy is a dynamic time of
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff development that requires frequent evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress.
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff Infants in a nurturing environment will develop appropriately and will not necessarily need
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



stimulation specific to their developmental stage. Normal growth and development are
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff orderly and proceed in a predictable pattern on the basis of each individuals abilities and
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff potentials.

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




a. Culture

b. Environment

c. Genetics

d. Nutrition


ANS: C fff




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



fff Although factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff traits, they do not eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent.
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff Culture is a significant factor that influences how children grow toward adulthood. Culture
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff influences both growth and development but does not eliminate inborn genetic influences.
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



Environment has a significant role in determining growth and development both before and
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff after birth. The environment can influence how and to which extent genetic traits are
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



manifested, but environmental factors cannot eliminate the effect of genetics. Nutrition is
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff



fff critical for growth and plays a significant role throughout childhood.
fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff fff




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



fff period of cognitive fff fff f f f development f f f in which the child
fff fff fff f f f is f f f able to fff f f f distinguish f f f fact
f f f from f f f fantasy is fff f f f the period of cognitive development.
