Rationale: During the psychosocial development of school-age children, reinforcement in the
form of grades, material rewards, additional privileges, and recognition provides
encouragement and stimulation. A sense of accomplishment also involves the ability to
cooperate, to compete with others, and to cope effectively with people, so separating children
will not promote their mental health. When the reward structure is based on evidence of
mastery, children who are incapable of developing these skills are also at risk for feelings of
inadequacy and inferiority. Comparison with one another can also cause some children to
develop negative feelings towards themselves, and result in a sense of inferiority. - ANSThe
school health nurse is teaching a group of teachers about promoting the mental health of
school-age children. Which action made by the teachers promotes a sense of industry among
the children?
A. Separating children during tasks
B. Basing a reward structure on evidence of mastery
C. Giving grades and gifts for satisfactory performances
D. Comparing the performances of children with one another
D. By focusing on simple anatomical diagrams
Rationale: According to Piaget, an 8-year-old child's level of development is in the stage of
concrete operations; the child will benefit from simple, concrete examples. The preschooler
and younger child, not the school-age child, require repetition. Therapeutic needle play is
more appropriate if and when the child is to receive an injection. The child who is in the
period of concrete operations cannot think in the abstract; the ability to do this develops
during adolescence. - ANSAn 8-year-old child is being prepared for surgery the next day.
How should the nurse present preoperative instructions to this child?
A. By repeating instructions often
B. By providing time for needle play
C. By using several abstract examples
D. By focusing on simple anatomical diagrams
A. Sits alone without support
Rationale: Infants between 6 and 8 months of age can sit alone without support. Infants can
creep on their hands and knees at the age of 8 to 10 months. Infants who are 10 to 12 months
of age can walk while holding onto furniture and can sit down from a standing position due to
their well-developed motor skills. - ANSWhich gross motor skill can be observed in a 7-
month-old infant?
