MULTIPLE CHOICE bk


1. The nurse is conducting an interview with a woman who has recently
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


learned that she is pregnant and who has come to the clinic today to begin
bk bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


prenatal care. The woman states that she and her husband are excited about
bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


the pregnancy but have a few questions. She looks nervously at her hands
bk bk bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


bkduring the interview and sighs loudly. Considering the concept of
bk bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk


communication, which statement does the nurse know to be most accurate?
bk bk bk bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk


The woman is:
bk bk bk


a. Excited about her pregnancy but nervous about the labor.
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


b. Exhibiting verbal and nonverbal behaviors that do not match.
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


c. Excited about her pregnancy, but her husband is not and
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


this is upsetting to her. d.
bk bk b k bk bk bk


Not excited about her pregnancy but believes the nurse will
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


negatively respond to her if she states this.
b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk




ANS: B bk


Communication is all behaviors, conscious and unconscious, verbal and nonverbal.
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


b All behaviors have meaning. Her behavior does not imply that she is nervous
k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


about labor, upset by her husband, or worried about the nurses response.
bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


2. Receiving is a part of the communication process. Which receiver is
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


b kmost likely to misinterpret a message sent by a health care
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


professional?
bk


a. Well-adjusted adolescent who came in for a sports physical bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


b. Recovering alcoholic who came in for a basic physical examination
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


c. Man whose wife has just been diagnosed with
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


lung cancer d.
bk b k bk


Man with a hearing impairment who uses sign language to communicate and
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


who has an interpreter with him
bk b k bk bk bk bk




ANS: C bk


The receiver attaches meaning determined by his or her experiences, culture,
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


self- concept, and current physical and emotional states. The man whose
bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


wife has just been diagnosed with lung cancer may be experiencing
bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


emotions that affect his receiving.
bk bk bk bk b k


3. The nurse makes which adjustment in the physical environment to promote
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


the success of an interview?
bk b k bk bk bk


a. Reduces noise by turning off televisions and radios
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


b. Reduces the distance between the interviewer and the patient to 2 feet or less
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


c. Provides a dim light that makes the room cozy and helps the patient relax
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


d. Arranges seating across a desk or table to allow the patient
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


some personal space
bk b k bk


ANS: A bk


The nurse should reduce noise by turning off the television, radio, and other
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


b kunnecessary equipment, because multiple stimuli are confusing. The
bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


interviewer and patient should be approximately 4 to 5 feet apart; the room
bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


should be well-lit, enabling the interviewer and patient to see each other
bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk


clearly. Having a table or desk in between the two people creates the idea
bk bk bk bk bk b k bk bk bk bk bk bk bk bk

, of a barrier; equal-status seating,
bk bk bk bk bk b k at eye level, is better.
