MULTIPLE CHOICE tj




1. A nurse is reviewing developmental concepts for infants and children. Which statement best
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj describes development in infants and children?
tj tj tj tj tj




a. Development, a predictable and orderlyprocess, occurs at varying rates within tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj



normal limits.
tj tj




b. Development is primarily related to the growth in the number and size of cells. tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




c. Development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle development tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj



occurring first.
tj tj




d. Development is more easily and accurately measured than growth. tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




ANS: A tj




Development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis for increases in the childs tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexitycan vary
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj normally within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is a definition
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj for growth. Development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle organization
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj occurring as a result of large muscle organization. Development is a more complex process that is
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and accurately measured. Growth is a
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj predictable process with standard measurement methods. tj tj tj tj tj




2. Frequent developmental assessments are important for which reason?
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




a. Stable developmental periods during infancy provide an opportunity to identify
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj



any delays or deficits.
tj tj tj tj




b. Infants need stimulation specific to the stage of development.
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




c. Critical periods of development occur during childhood. tj tj tj tj tj tj




d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.
tj tj tj tj tj tj

,ANS: C tj




Critical periods are blocks of time during which children are ready to master specific
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj developmental tasks. Children can master these tasks more easily during particular periods of time
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj in their growth and developmental process. Infancy is a dynamic time of development that
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj requires frequent evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress. Infants in a nurturing
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj environment will develop appropriately and will not necessarily need stimulation specific to their
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj developmental stage. Normal growth and development are orderly and proceed in a predictable
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj pattern on the basis of each individuals abilities and potentials.

3. Which factor has the greatest influence on child growth and development?
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




a. Culture

b. Environment
c. Genetics

d. Nutrition


ANS: C tj




Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals growth and developmental rate. Although
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic traits, they do not
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent. Culture is a significant factor
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj that influences how children grow toward adulthood. Culture influences both growth and
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj development but does not eliminate inborn genetic influences. Environment has a significant role
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj in determining growth and development both before and after birth. The environment can
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj influence how and to which extent genetic traits are manifested, but environmental factors cannot
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj eliminate the effect of genetics. Nutrition is critical for growth and plays a significant role
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




tj throughout childhood. tj




4. A nurse is planning a teaching session with a child. According to Piagetian theory, the period of
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj




cognitive development in which the child is able to distinguish fact from fantasy is the
tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj tj t j t j t j




t j period of cognitive development.
