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

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

bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
Dorothea Dix was the head of the U.S. Sanitary Commission, which was a forerunner of the

bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
Boston’s Women’s Hospital in 1873, and Lena Higbee, superintendent of the U.S. Navy Nurse
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz

4. The nursing instructor is researching the five proficiencies regarded as essential forstudents
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
and professionals. The nursing instructor identifies which organization would be found to
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
have added safety as a sixth competency?
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
a. Quality and Safety Education for Nurses(QSEN) bz bz bz bz bz
b. Institute of Medicine (IOM) bz bz bz

outlines five core competencies. These include patient-centered care, interdisciplinary
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
teamwork, use of evidence-based medicine, quality improvement, and use of information
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
technology. QSEN added safety as a sixth competency. The Essentials of Baccalaureate Education
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
for Professional Nursing Practice are provided and updated by the American Association of
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
Colleges of Nursing (AACN) (2008). The document offers a framework for the education of
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
professional nurses with outcomes for students to meet. The National League for Nursing (NLN)
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
outlines and updates competencies for practical, associate, baccalaureate, and graduate nursing

Benner’s model identifies five levels of proficiency: novice, advanced beginner, competent,
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
proficient, and expert. The student nurse progresses from novice to advanced beginner during
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
nursing school and attains the competent level after approximately 2 to 3 years of work
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
experience after graduation. To obtain the RN credential, a person must graduate from an
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
approved school of nursing and pass a state licensing examination called the National Council
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) usually taken soon after
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
completion of an approved nursing program.

6. The prospective student is considering options for beginning a career in nursing.Which
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
bz degree would best match thestudent’s desire to conduct research at the universitylevel?
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
a. Associate Degree in Nursing(ADN) bz bz bz bz
b. Bachelor of Science in Nursing(BSN) bz bz bz bz bz
c. Doctor of Nursing Practice(DNP) bz bz bz bz
d. Doctor of Philosophy in Nursing(PhD) bz bz bz bz bz
ANS: D bz
Doctoral nursing education can result in a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree. This degree
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
prepares nurses for leadership roles in research, teaching, and administration that are essential to
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
advancing nursing as a profession. Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) programs usually are
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
conducted in a community college setting. The nursing curriculum focuses on adult acute and
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
chronic disease; maternal/child health; pediatrics; and psychiatric/mental health nursing. ADN
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
RNs may return to school to earn a bachelor’s degree or higher in an RN-to-BSN or RN-to-
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
MSN program. Bachelor’s degree programs include community health and management
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
courses beyond those provided in an associate degree program. A newer practice-focused
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
doctoral degree is the Doctor of Nursing practice (DNP), which concentrates on the clinical
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
aspects of nursing. DNP specialties include the four advanced practice roles of NP, CNS,
bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz bz
CNM, and CRNA.
