,chapter 1: approach to care and assessment of children and
adolescents
multiple choice
1. a nurse is reviewing developmental concepts for infants
and children. which statement best describes development in
infants and children?
a. development, a predictable and orderly process, occurs at
varying rates within normal limits.
b. development is primarily related to the growth in the
number and size of cells.
c. development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine
muscle development occurring first.
d. development is more easily and accurately measured
than growth.
ans: a
development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis
for increases in the childs function and complexity of behavior.
the increases in rate of function and complexity can vary
,normally within limits for each child. an increase in the
number and size of cells is a definition for growth.
development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine
muscle organization occurring as a result of large muscle
organization. development is a more complex process that is
affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and
accurately measured. growth is a predictable process with
standard measurement methods.
2. frequent developmental assessments are important for
which reason?
a. stable developmental periods during infancy provide an
opportunity to identify any delays or deficits.
b. infants need stimulation specific to the stage of
development.
c. critical periods of development occur during childhood.
d. child development is unpredictable and needs
monitoring.
,ans: c
critical periods are blocks of time during which children are
ready to master specific developmental tasks. children can
master these tasks more easily during particular periods of
time in their growth and developmental process. infancy is a
dynamic time of development that requires frequent
evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress.
infants in a nurturing environment will develop appropriately
and will not necessarily need stimulation specific to their
developmental stage. normal growth and development are
orderly and proceed in a predictable pattern on the basis of
each individuals abilities and potentials.
3. which factor has the greatest influence on child growth
and development?
a. culture
b. environment
c. genetics
d. nutrition
ans: c
, genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals growth
and developmental rate. although factors such as
environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence
genetic traits, they do not eliminate the effect of the genetic
endowment, which is permanent. culture is a significant factor
that influences how children grow toward adulthood. culture
influences both growth and development but does not
eliminate inborn genetic influences. environment has a
significant role in determining growth and development both
before and after birth. the environment can influence how and
to which extent genetic traits are manifested, but
environmental factors cannot eliminate the effect of genetics.
nutrition is critical for growth and plays a significant role
throughout childhood.
4. a nurse is planning a teaching session with a child.
according to piagetian theory, the period of cognitive
development in which the child is able to distinguish fact from
fantasy is the period of cognitive development.
a. sensorimotor
