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.
Answer: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.
, Answer: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
Answer: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.
