1. The nurse manager of a pediatric clinic could confirm that the new nurse
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1


recognized the purpose of the HEADSS Adolescent Risk Profile when the new
h1 h 1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


nurse responds that it is used to review for needs related to
h1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1


a. anticipatory guidance. h1


b. low-risk adolescents. h1


c. physical development. h1


d. sexual development. h1




ANS: A
The HEADSS Adolescent Risk Profile is a psychosocial assessment screening tool
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


which reviews home, education, activities, drugs, sex, and suicide for the purpose
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


of identifying high-risk adolescents and the need for anticipatory guidance. It is
h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


used to identify high-risk, not low-risk, adolescents. Physical development is
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


reviewed with anthropometric data.
h1 h1 h1 h1


Sexual development is reviewed using physical examination.

2. The nurse preparing a teaching plan for a preschooler knows that, according to
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


Piaget, the expected stage of development for a preschooler is
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


a. concrete operational. h1


b. formal operational. h1


c. preoperational.
d. sensorimotor.
ANS: C
The expected stage of development for a preschooler (3–4 years old) is pre-
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


operational. Concrete operational describes the thinking of a school-age
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


child (7–11 years old).
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


Formal operational describes the thinking of an individual after about 11 years of
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


age. Sensorimotor describes the earliest pattern of thinking from birth to
h1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


2 years old.

3. The school nurse talking with a high school class about the difference between
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


growth and development would best describe growth as
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


a. processes by which early cells specialize. h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


b. psychosocial and cognitive changes. h1 h1 h1


c. qualitative changes associated with aging. h1 h1 h1 h1


d. quantitative changes in size or h1 h1 h1 h1




weight. ANS:

,TEST BANK FOR CONCEPTS FOR NURSING PRACTICE 3RD EDITION BY GIDDENS

Growth is a quantitative change in which an increase in cell number and
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


h1size results in an increase in overall size or weight of the body or any of
h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1


h1its parts. The processes by which early cells specialize are referred to as
h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


differentiation. Psychosocial and cognitive changes are referred to as development.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


Qualitative changes associated with aging are referred to as maturation.

4. The most appropriate response of the nurse when a mother asks what the Denver II
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


does is that it
h1 h1 h1 h1


a. can diagnose developmental disabilities.
h1 h1 h1


b. identifies a need for physical therapy. h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


c. is a developmental screening tool.
h1 h1 h1 h1


d. provides a framework for health teaching. h1 h1 h1 h1 h1




ANS: C
The Denver II is the most commonly used measure of developmental status used
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


by healthcare professionals; it is a screening tool. Screening tools do not
h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


provide a diagnosis. Diagnosis requires a thorough neurodevelopment history and
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


physical examination.
h1 h1


Developmental delay, which is suggested by screening, is a symptom, not a
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


diagnosis. The need for any therapy would be identified with a comprehensive
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


evaluation, not a screening tool. Some providers use the Denver II as a
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


framework for teaching about expected development, but this is not the
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


primary purpose of the tool.

anCt OwMith Down syndrome, the nurse
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 lp h1 h1 h1 h1


considers knowledge of other physical development exemplars such as
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


a. cerebral palsy. h1


b. failure to thrive. h1 h1


c. fetal alcohol syndrome. h1 h1


d. hydrocephaly.
ANS: D h 1 h 1


Hydrocephaly is also a physical development exemplar. Cerebral palsy is an exemplar
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


of adaptive developmental delay. Failure to thrive is an exemplar of social/emotional
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


developmental delay. Fetal alcohol syndrome is an exemplar of cognitive
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


developmental delay.

6. To plan early intervention and care for a child with a developmental delay, the
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


nurse would consider knowledge of the concepts most significantly impacted by
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


development, including
h1 h1


a. culture.
b. environment.
c. functional status. h1


d. nutrition.
h1 ANS: C

, TEST BANK FOR CONCEPTS FOR NURSING PRACTICE 3RD EDITION BY GIDDENS
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1




Function is one of the concepts most significantly impacted by development. Others
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


include sensory-perceptual, cognition, mobility, reproduction, and sexuality.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


Knowledge of these concepts can help the nurse anticipate areas that need to
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


be addressed. Culture is a concept that is considered to significantly affect
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


development; the difference is the concepts that affect development are those that
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


represent major influencing factors (causes); hence determination of development
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


would be the focus of preventive interventions. Environment is considered to
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1


significantly affect development. Nutrition is considered to significantly affect
h 1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


development.

7. A mother complains to the nurse at the pediatric clinic that her 4-year-old child
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


always talks to her toys and makes up stories. The mother wants her child
h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1


to have a psychological evaluation. The nurse‘s best initial response is to
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


a. refer the child to a psychologist immediately.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


b. explain that playing make believe is normal at this age.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


c. complete a developmental screening using a validated tool.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


d. separate the child from the mother to get more information.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1




ANS: B
By the end of the fourth year, it is expected that a child will engage in
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


fantasy, so this is normal at this age. A referral to a psychologist would
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h1 h1


h1be premature based only on the complaint of the mother. Completing a
h1 h 1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


developmental screening would be very appropriate but not the initial response.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


The nurse would certainly want to get more information, but separating the
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h 1 h1


child from the mother is not necessary at this time.

8. A 17-year-old girl is hospitalized for appendicitis, and her mother asks the nurse why
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


she is so needy and acting like a child. The best response of the nurse
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h 1


is that in the hospital, adolescents
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


a. have separation anxiety. h1 h1


b. rebel against rules. h1 h1


c. regress because of stress. h1 h1 h1


d. want to know everything. h1 h1 h1




ANS: C
Regression to an earlier stage of development is a common response to stress.
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


Separation anxiety is most common in infants and toddlers. Rebellion
h1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


against hospital rules is usually not an issue if the adolescent understands the
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


rules and would not create childlike behaviors. An adolescent may want to ―know
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1


everything‖ with their logical thinking and deductive reasoning, but that would
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


not explain why they would act like a child.
