When thoughts, feelings, and behaviors w w w w

3. A nurse is assessing a set of 15-year-old identical w w w w w w w w
w twins who respond very differently to stress. One twin becomes anxious
w w w w w w w w w w
w and irritable, and the other withdraws and cries. How should the nurse
w w w w w w w w w w w
w explain these different stress responses to the parents?
w w w w w w w
, Reactions to stress are relative rather than w w w w w w
1. absolute; individual responses to stress
w w w w w
vary.
It is abnormal for identical twins to
w w w w w w
2.
w react differently to similar stressors.
w w w w
Identical twins should share the same w w w w w
3.
wtemperament and respond similarly to w w w w

w weigh more heavily than genetic w w w w
w influences.

5. A psychiatric nurse intern states, “This client‟s use of
w w w w w w w w
defense mechanisms should be eliminated.” Which is a correct evaluation
w w w w w w w w w w
of this nurse‟s statement?
w w w w
Defense mechanisms can be appropriate w w w w
1. responses to stress and need not be w w w w w w w
eliminated.
Defense mechanisms are a maladaptive w w w w
2. attempt of the ego to manage anxiety w w w w w w w
and w
should always be eliminated. w w w
Defense mechanisms, used by individuals w w w w
3. with weak ego integrity, should be w w w w w w
discouraged and not eliminated. w w w
Defense mechanisms cause disintegration w w w
4. of the ego and should be fostered and
w w w w w w w w
encouraged.
6. During an intake assessment, a nurse asks bothw w w w w w w
physiological and psychosocial questions. The client angrily responds, “I‟m
w w w w w w w w w
here for my heart, not my head problems.” Which is the nurse‟s best
w w w w w w w w w w w w w
response?
w
, “It is just a routine part of our
w w w w w w w
1. assessment. All clients are asked these
w w w w w w
same
w
questions.”
“Why are you concerned about these
w w w w w
2.
types of
w w
questions?”
“Psychological factors, like excessive stress, w w w w
3. have been found to affect medical
w w w w w w
conditions.”
“We can skip these questions, if you
w w w w w w
4. like. It isn‟t imperative that we
w w w w w w
complete this
w w
section.”
