Question 1

The mother of a 3-year-old child tells the nurse that her child hit
her doll after the mother scolded her for picking the neighbors’
flowers. Which defense mechanism used by the child does the
nurse identify in the mother’s report?


Projection


Sublimation

Co

ct! Displacement


Identification




Rationale: The defense mechanism of displacement
involves the discharge of intense feelings for one person
onto a substitute person or object that is less threatening
to satisfy an impulse. Projection involves attributing an
attitude, behavior, or impulse, such as that which occurs in
blaming or scapegoating, to someone else. Sublimation is
the act of rechanneling an impulse into a more socially
acceptable object. Identification involves modeling
behavior after someone else's.

Test-Taking Strategy: Use the process of elimination and
knowledge regarding the subject, defense mechanisms.
Focusing on the data in the question and the child’s
behavior will direct you to the correct option. Review these
defense mechanisms if you had difficulty with this
question.

A client says to the nurse, “I’ve been following my diet and taking
my medication. What else do you want to talk about today?”
Which response would be most helpful during the working phase
of the therapeutic alliance?


“Sounds fine to me. Let’s meet again in 6 months.”



“I don’t believe that you have been following your diet because
you haven’t lost any weight.”



“Well, you’ve talked about diet in your terms, but perhaps I
should test you on specific things.”

“Some people have added exercise to diet and medication
therapy and gotten positive results. Do you think that this would
work for you?”




Rationale: Although suggestion or overt giving of advice is
sometimes nontherapeutic, these strategies are
therapeutic when used in the working phase, because in
this situation they will increase the client’s perception of all
available options in the treatment plan. Answering
“Sounds fine to me. Let’s meet again in 6 months” stops
the communication process. Stating to the client that he or
she has not lost any weight implies disbelief and does not
explore the reasons for the client’s failure to lose weight.
“Testing” challenges the client and is nontherapeutic.

Test-Taking Strategy: Use the process of elimination and
therapeutic communication techniques. Noting the words
“working phase” in the question will direct you to the
correct option. Review therapeutic communication
techniques if you had difficulty with this question.
