Chapter 03: Developmental and Genetic Influences on Child Health Promotion
Hockenberry: Wong’s Essentials of Pediatric Nursing, 10th Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. An infant gains head control before sitting unassisted. The nurse recognizes that this is which
type of development?
a. Cephalocaudal
b. Proximodistal
c. Mass to specific
d. Sequential
ANS: A
The pattern of development that is head-to-tail, or cephalocaudal, direction is described by an
infant’s ability to gain head control before sitting unassisted. The head end of the organism
develops first and is large and complex, whereas the lower end is smaller and simpler, and
development takes place at a later time. Proximodistal, or near to far, is another pattern of
development. Limb buds develop before fingers and toes. Postnatally, the child has control of
the shoulder before achieving mastery of the hands. Mass to specific is not a specific pattern
of development. In all dimensions of growth, a definite, sequential pattern is followed.

2. Which refers to those times in an individual’s life when he or she is more susceptible to
positive or negative influences?
a. Sensitive period
b. Sequential period
c. Terminal points
d. Differentiation points
ANS: A
Sensitive periods are limited times during the process of growth when the organism will
interact with a particular environment in a specific manner. These times make the organism
more susceptible to positive or negative influences. The sequential period, terminal points,
and differentiation points are developmental times that do not make the organism more
susceptible to environmental interaction.

In general, birth weight triples by the end of the first year of life. For an infant who was 7
pounds at birth, 21 pounds would be the anticipated weight at the first birthday; 14, 16, or 18
pounds is below what would be expected for an infant with a birth weight of 7 pounds.

ANS: C
Linear growth or height occurs almost entirely as a result of skeletal growth and is considered
a stable measurement of general growth. On average, most children have doubled their birth
length at age 4 years. One and 2 years are too young for doubling of length. Most children
will have achieved the doubling by age 4 years.
