A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
a. Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory A A
b. Paul‘s Critical-Thinking Theory A A

d. Rosenstock‘s Health Belief Model A A A
CORRECT ANS: C A A
FEEDBACK: Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs specifies the psychological and physiologic fact
A A A A A A A A A A
ors that affect each person‘s physical and mental health. The RN‘s understanding of these fac
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
tors helps with formulating Nursing diagnoses that address the client‘s needs and values to pr
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
ioritize care. Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory of Development and Socialization is based on in
A A A A A A A A A A A A
dividuals‘ interacting and learning about their world. RNs use concepts of developmentaltheor
A A A A A A A A A A A A
y to critically think in providing care for their clients at various stages of their lives.
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
Rosenstock (1974) developed the psychological Health Belief Model. The model addressespo
A A A A A A A A A A A
ssible reasons for why a client may not comply with recommended health promotion behavio
A A A A A A A A A A A A A

n of energy.Hildegard Peplau (1952) focused on the roles played by the RN and the interper
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
sonal process between a RN and a client. Virginia Henderson described the RN‘s role as su

bstitutive (doing for the person), supplementary (helping the person), or complementary (w
A A A A A A A A A A A
orking with the person), with the goal of independence for the client. Martha Rogers (1970)
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
developed the Science of Unitary Human Beings. She stated that human beings and their en
A A A A A A A A A A A A A A
vironments are interacting in continuous motion as infinite energy fields.
