MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. A group of nursing students are discussing the impact of no nursing theories in clinical
practice. The students would be correct if they chose which theory to prioritize patient
care?
a. Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory
b. Paul’s Critical-Thinking Theory
c. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
d. Rosenstock’s Health Belief Model
ANS: C
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs specifies the psychological and physiologic factors that affect each
person’s physical and mental health. The nurse’s understanding of these factors helps with formulating
Nursing diagnoses that address the patient’s needs and values to prioritize care. Erikson’s
Psychosocial Theory of Development and Socialization is based on individuals’ interacting and learning
about their world. Nurses use concepts of developmentaltheory to critically think in providing care for
their patients at various stages of their lives.
Rosenstock (1974) developed the psychological Health Belief Model. The model addressespossible
reasons for why a patient may not comply with recommended health promotion behaviors. This model
is especially useful to nurses as they educate patients.

the capacity for health and does not allow for conservation of energy.Hildegard Peplau (1952) focused
on the roles played by the nurse and the interpersonal process between a nurse and a patient. Virginia
Henderson described the nurse’s role as substitutive (doing for the person), supplementary (helping the
person), or complementary (working with the person), with the goal of independence for the patient.
Martha Rogers (1970) developed the Science of Unitary Human Beings. She stated that human beings
and their environments are interacting in continuous motion as infinite energy fields.

practice-focused doctoral degree is the Doctor of Nursing practice (DNP), which concentrateson the
clinical aspects of nursing. DNP specialties include the four advanced practice roles of
