, Chapter 01: Practice Questions

1. A group of nursing students are reviewing information about the evolution of mental health care
and are discussing the recommendations of the final report of the Joint Commission on Mental Illness
and Health. The students demonstrate understanding of this information when they identify that the
report recommended an increase in which of the following?

A) Numbers of mental health hospitals
B) State funding for mental health care
C) Clinics supplemented by general hospital units
D) Use of psychotherapy by psychiatrists

Correct Answer: C) Clinics supplemented by general hospital units

Explanation: The final report of the Joint Commission on Mental Illness and Health, published in 1961,
recommended a shift away from large state hospitals toward community-based clinics and general
hospital units for mental health care. This report helped lay the groundwork for the community mental
health movement



2. A nurse is reviewing the American Nurses Association's Statement on Psychiatric Nursing Practice
published in 1967, which sanctioned the involvement of psychiatric mental health nurses in the
provision of holistic nursing care. Integrating knowledge of the various theories and views of mental
health and illness, the nurse identifies which of the following as most strongly linked to this holistic
approach?

A) Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory
B) Florence Nightingale's Notes on Nursing
C) Hildegarde Peplau's Interpersonal Relations in Nursing
D) Clifford Beers' A Mind That Found Itself

Correct Answer: B) Florence Nightingale's Notes on Nursing

Explanation: Florence Nightingale's approach to nursing emphasized the importance of the environment
and caring for the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This holistic perspective is most strongly
aligned with the holistic approach to psychiatric nursing care sanctioned by the ANA's 1967 statement



3. A nursing instructor is preparing a presentation about key events and people that influenced the
development of contemporary mental health and illness care. When describing the effects of World
War II, which of the following would the instructor include?
