disorders.

Feedback: Epidemiology is the study of patterns of disease distribution and T T T T T T T T T T
determinants of health within populations. It contributes to the overall understanding
T T T T T T T T T T T
of the mental health status of population groups, or aggregates, and it examines the
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
associations among possible factors. Epidemiology does not explain research findings
T T T T T T T T T T
about neurophysiology, provide theoretical explanations for why specific disorders
T T T T T T T T T
occur, or predict recovery.

community, which of the following would be most important for the nurse to address?

Feedback: Although public stigma and self-stigma may be areas needing to be T T T T T T T T T T T
addressed, in this cultural group, label avoidance would be most important. Label
T T T T T T T T T T T T
avoidance or avoiding treatment/care so as not to be labeled mentally ill is a type of
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
stigma that influences why so few people with mental health problems actually
T T T T T T T T T T T T
receive assistance. Asian cultures commonly have negative views of mental illness
T T T T T T T T T T T
that influence the willingness of members to seek treatment; they possibly ignore the
T T T T T T T T T T T T T
symptoms or refuse to seek treatment because of this stigma. Negative life events
T T T T T T T T T T T T T
affect anyone, not just those of the Asian culture.

Feedback: Just as a person with diabetes should not be referred to as a “diabetic”
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
but rather as a “person with diabetes,” a person with a mental disorder should never
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
be referred to as a “schizophrenic” or “bipolar,” but rather as a “person with
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
schizophrenia” or a “person with bipolar disorder.” Doing so helps to counteract the
T T T T T T T T T T T T T
negative effects of stigma. T T T
4. A nursing student is reviewing journal articles about major depression. One of the
T T T T T T T T T T T T T
articles describes the number of persons newly diagnosed with the disorder during the

Feedback: The article is describing incidence, which refers to a rate that includes T T T T T T T T T T T T
only new cases that have occurred within a clearly defined time period. The most
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
common time period evaluated is 1 year. Rate reflects the proportion of cases in the
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
population compared with the total population. Prevalence refers to the total number
T T T T T T T T T T T T
of people with the disorder within a given population at a specified time, regardless of
T T T T T T T T T T T T T T T
how long ago the disorder started. Point prevalence refers to the proportion of

individuals in the population that have a disorder at a specific point in time.
