Chapter 1: Approach to Care and Assessment of Children and Adolescents
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A medic is reviewing developmental concepts for infants and children. Which
statement best describes development in infants and children?
a. Development, a predictable and orderly process, occurs at varying rates within
normal limits.
b. Development is primarily related to the growth in the number and size of cells.
c. Development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle development
occurring first.
d. Development is more easily and accurately measured than growth.
CORRECT: A
Development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis for increases in the childs
function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can vary
normally within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is a definition
for growth. Development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle organization
occurring as a result of large muscle organization. Development is a more complex process that
is affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and accurately measured. Growth is a
predictable process with standard measurement methods.
2. Frequent developmental assessments are important for which reason?
a. Stable developmental periods during infancy provide an opportunity to identify
any delays or deficits.
b. Infants need stimulation specific to the stage of development.
c. Critical periods of development occur during childhood.
d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

3. Which factor has the greatest influence on child growth and
development?
a. Culture
b. Environment
c. Genetics
d. Nutrition
CORRECT: C
Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals
growth and developmental rate. Although factors such as
environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence
genetic traits, they do not eliminate the effect of the genetic
endowment, which is permanent. Culture is a significant
factor that influences how children grow toward adulthood.
Culture influences both growth and development but does
not eliminate inborn genetic influences. Environment has a
significant role in determining growth and development
both before and after birth. The environment can influence
how and to which extent genetic traits are manifested, but
environmental factors cannot eliminate the effect of
genetics. Nutrition is critical for growth and plays a
significant role throughout childhood.
