Chapter 1: Approach to Care and Assessment of Children and Adolescents
u u u u u u u u u u




MULTIPLE CHOICE u




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



describes development in infants and children?
u u u u u u




a. Development, a predictable and orderly process, occurs at varying rates within u u u u u u u u u u


normal limits.
u u




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




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


occurring first.
u u




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




ANS: A u




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



u function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can vary
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u



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



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



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



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



u predictable process with standard measurement methods.
u u u u u




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




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


any delays or deficits.
u u u u




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




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




d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

ANS: C u




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



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



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



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



u nurturingenvironment will develop appropriately and will not necessarily need stimulation
u u u u u u u u u u



u specific to theirdevelopmental stage. Normal growth and development are orderly and proceed
u u u u u u u u u u u u



u in a predictable pattern on the basis of each individuals abilities and potentials.
u u u u u u u u u u u u




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




a. Culture

b. Environment

c. Genetics

d. Nutrition


ANS: C u




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



u factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic traits, they do
u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u not eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent. Culture is a significant
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u



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



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



u rolein determining growth and development both before and after birth. The environment can
u u u u u u u u u u u u u



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



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



u throughout childhood. u




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



u of cognitive development in which the child is able to distinguish fact from fantasy is the
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u period of cognitive development.
u u u




a. sensorimotor

, b. formal operations u




c. concrete operations u




d. preoperational


ANS: C u




Concrete operations is the period of cognitive development in which childrens thinking is shifted
u u u u u u u u u u u u u



from egocentric to being able to see anothers point of view. They develop the ability to
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u distinguish fact from fantasy. The sensorimotor stage occurs in infancy and is a period of
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u reflexive behavior. During this period, the infants world becomes more permanent and
u u u u u u u u u u u



u organized. The stage ends with the infant demonstrating some evidence of reasoning. Formal
u u u u u u u u u u u u



u operations is a period in development in which new ideas are created through previous
u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u thoughts.Analytic reason and abstract thought emerge in this period. The preoperational stage is
u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u a period of egocentrism in which the childs judgments are illogical and dominated by magical
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u



u thinking and animism.
