MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A group of nursing learners are discussing the impact of
nonnursing theories in clinical practice. The learners would
be correct if they chose which theory to prioritize client
care?
a.
Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory
b.
Paul‘s Critical-Thinking Theory
c.
Maslow‘s Hierarchy of Needs
d.
Rosenstock‘s Health Belief Model
CORRECT ANS: C
FEEDBACK: Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs specifies the
psychological and physiologic factors that affect each
person‘s physical and mental health. The RN‘s understanding of
these factors helps with formulating Nursing diagnoses that
address the client‘s needs and values to prioritize care.
Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory of Development and Socialization
is based on individuals‘ interacting and learning about their
world. RNs use concepts of developmental theory to critically
think in providing care for their clients at various stages of
their lives.
Rosenstock (1974) developed the psychological Health Belief
Model. The model addresses possible reasons for why a client
may not comply with recommended health promotion behaviors.
This model is especially useful to RNs as they educate
clients.

2. A nursing learner is preparing study notes from a recent
lecture in nursing history. The learner would credit
Florence Nightingale for which definition of nursing?
a.
The imbalance between the client and the environment
decreases the capacity for health.
b.
The RN needs to focus on interpersonal processes between RN and
client.
c.
The RN assists the client with essential functions toward
independence.
d.
Human beings are interacting in continuous motion as energy fields.
CORRECT ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Florence Nightingale‘s (1860) concept of the
environment emphasized prevention and clean air, water, and
housing. This theory states that the imbalance between the
client and the environment decreases the capacity for health
and does not allow for conservation of energy. Hildegard
Peplau (1952) focused on the roles played by the RN and the
interpersonal process between a RN and a client. Virginia
Henderson described the RN‘s role as substitutive (doing for
the person), supplementary (helping the person), or
complementary (working with the person), with the goal of
independence for the client. Martha Rogers (1970) developed
the Science of Unitary Human Beings. She stated that human
beings and their environments are interacting in continuous
motion as infinite energy fields.

a.
Quality and Safety Education for RNs (QSEN)
b.
Institute of Medicine (IOM)
c.
American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN)
d.
National League for Nursing (NLN)
