Peds Final Exam Questions With Complete Solutions10s
The nurse is assessing an 6-month-old infant at a well-baby visit
and is answering questions from the new mother. Which
response should the nurse prioritize when addressing the
mother's question concerning what the infant should be learning
at this point in life?
Trust
Feel anger
Love
Fear Correct Answer Trust
Explanation:
Erikson identifies various developmental stages which all
children accomplish as they grow and develop into adults. The
primary psychosocial developmental task for the infant is
learning to trust. This task creates the foundation for the
developmental tasks of the next stages of the child's life. If the
infant does not receive food, love, attention, and comfort, the
infant learns to mistrust the environment and those who are
responsible for caring for the child. Learning to feel anger, love,
and fear come at later times in development.

Question 34
11s
A nurse is teaching the parents of a toddler how to handle the
child's temper tantrums. The nurse determines that the teaching
was successful when the parents state that an appropriate
response to the tantrum would be:
"If you stop screaming, you can have a cookie."
"I can kick as hard as you do."
"I'll give you a hug if you stop right away."
"I'll be in the kitchen. When you're done, you can come in, too.
Correct Answer "I'll be in the kitchen. When you're done, you
can come in, too.
Explanation:
The best response is to tell a child simply that the parent
disapproves of the tantrum and then ignore it. Telling the child
that the parent will be in the kitchen and that he or she can come
in when the child is done is such an example. Bribery, such as
saying that the child can have a cookie or a hug if the behavior
stops, is rarely effective because by accepting the child's wishes,
the parent is encouraging the child to have more tantrums
,because he or she was successful. Telling the child that the
parent can kick as hard as the child can reinforces how the child
is responding.
