Multiple Choice
h h




1. A nurse is assessing a client who is experiencing occasional feelings of sadness because of the
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



recent death of a beloved pet. The clients appetite, sleep patterns, and daily routine have not
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



changed. How should the nurse interpret the clients behaviors?
h h h h h h h h h



1. The clients behaviors demonstrate mental illness in the form of depression.
h h h h h h h h h h



2. The clients behaviors are extensive, which indicates the presence of mental illness.
h h h h h h h h h h h



3. The clients behaviors are not congruent with cultural norms.
h h h h h h h h



4. The clients behaviors demonstrate no functional impairment, indicating no mental illness.
h h h h h h h h h h




ANSWER: 4 h



Rationale: The nurse should assess that the clients daily functioning is not impaired. The clientwho
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



experiences feelings of sadness after the loss of a pet is responding within normal expectations.
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



Without significant impairment, the clients distress does not indicate a mental illness.
h h h h h h h h h h h h




Cognitive Level: Analysis h h



Integrated Process: Assessment
h h h




2. At what point should the nurse determine that a client is at risk for developing a mental
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



illness?
h



1. When thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are not reflective of the DSM-5 criteria.
h h h h h h h h h h h



2. When maladaptive responses to stress are coupled with interference in daily functioning.
h h h h h h h h h h h



3. When a client communicates significant distress.
h h h h h



4. When a client uses defense mechanisms as ego protection.
h h h h h h h h




ANSWER: 2 h



Rationale: The nurse should determine that the client is at risk for mental illness when responsesto
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



stress are maladaptive and interfere with daily functioning. The DSM-5 indicates that in orderto
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



be diagnosed with a mental illness, daily functioning must be significantly impaired. The clients
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



ability to communicate distress would be considered a positive attribute.
h h h h h h h h h h




Cognitive Level: Application h h



Integrated Process: Assessment
h h h




3. A nurse is assessing a set of 15-year-old identical twins who respond very differently to stress.
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



One twin becomes anxious and irritable, and the other withdraws and cries. How should the nurse
h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h h



explain these different stress responses to the parents?
h h h h h h h h



1. Reactions to stress are relative rather than absolute; individual responses to stress vary.
h h h h h h h h h h h h



2. It is abnormal for identical twins to react differently to similar stressors.
h h h h h h h h h h h



3. Identical twins should share the same temperament and respond similarly to stress.
h h h h h h h h h h h



4. Environmental influences to stress weigh more heavily than genetic influences. h h h h h h h h h
