1. The nurse manager of a pediatric clinic could confirm that the new nurse recognized the
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
purpose of the HEADSS Adolescent Risk Profile when the new nurse responds that it is
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
used to assess for needs related to
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
a. anticipatory guidance. iu
b. low-risk adolescents. iu
c. physical development. iu
d. sexual development. iu
ANS: A i u
The HEADSS Adolescent Risk Profile is a psychosocial assessment screening tool which
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
assesses home, education, activities, drugs, sex, and suicide for the purpose of identifying
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
high-risk adolescents and the need for anticipatory guidance. It is used to identify high-risk,
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
not low-risk, adolescents. Physical development is assessed with anthropometric data.

Sexual development is assessed using physical examination.

2. The nurse preparing a teaching plan for a preschooler knows that, according to Piaget, the
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
expected stage of development for a preschooler is
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
a. concrete operational. iu
b. formal operational. N iu
c. preoperational.
d. sensorimotor.
ANS: C i u
The expected stage of development for a preschooler (3–4 years old) is pre-operational.
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
Concrete operational describes the thinking of a school-age child (7–11 years old). Formal
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
operational describes the thinking of an individual after about 11 years of age. Sensorimotor
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
describes the earliest pattern of thinking from birth to 2 years old.

3. The school nurse talking with a high school class about the difference between growth and
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
development would best describe growth as
iu iu iu iu iu iu
a. processes by which early cells specialize. iu iu iu iu iu
b. psychosocial and cognitive changes. iu iu iu
c. qualitative changes associated with aging. iu iu iu iu
d. quantitative changes in size or weight. iu iu iu iu iu

, Growth is a quantitative change in which an increase in cell number and size results in an
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
increase in overall size or weight of the body or any of its parts. The processes by which
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
early cells specialize are referred to as differentiation. Psychosocial and cognitive changes
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
are referred to as development. Qualitative changes associated with aging are referred to as
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
maturation.

4. The most appropriate response of the nurse when a mother asks what the Denver II does is
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
that it
iu iu
a. can diagnose developmental disabilities.
iu iu iu
b. identifies a need for physical therapy. iu iu iu iu iu
c. is a developmental screening tool.
iu iu iu iu
d. provides a framework for health teaching. iu iu iu iu iu
ANS: C i u
The Denver II is the most commonly used measure of developmental status used by
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
healthcare professionals; it is a screening tool. Screening tools do not provide a diagnosis.
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
Diagnosis requires a thorough neurodevelopment history and physical examination.
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
Developmental delay, which is suggested by screening, is a symptom, not a diagnosis. The iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
need for any therapy would be identified with a comprehensive evaluation, not a screening
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
tool. Some providers use the Denver II as a framework for teaching about expected
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
development, but this is not the primary purpose of the tool.

5. To plan early intervention a n Nd care for an infant with Down syndrome, the nurse considers
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
knowledge of other physical development exemplars such as
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
a. cerebral palsy. iu
b. autism.
c. attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). iu iu
d. failure to thrive. iu iu
ANS: D i u
Failure to thrive is also a physical development exemplar. Cerebral palsy is an exemplar of
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
motor/developmental delay. Autism is an exemplar of social/emotional developmental
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
delay. ADHD is an exemplar of a cognitive disorder.

6. To plan early intervention and care for a child with a developmental delay, the nurse would
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
consider knowledge of the concepts most significantly impacted by development, including
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
a. culture.
b. environment.
c. functional status. iu
d. nutrition.
ANS: C
iu i u
, Function is one of the concepts most significantly impacted by development. Others include
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
sensory-perceptual, cognition, mobility, reproduction, and sexuality. Knowledge of these
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
concepts can help the nurse anticipate areas that need to be addressed. Culture is a concept
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
that is considered to significantly affect development; the difference is the concepts that
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
affect development are those that represent major influencing factors (causes); hence
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
determination of development would be the focus of preventive interventions.
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
Environment is considered to significantly affect development. Nutrition is considered to
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
significantly affect development.

7. A mother complains to the nurse at the pediatric clinic that her 4-year-old child always talks
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
to her toys and makes up stories. The mother wants her child to have a psychological
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
evaluation. The nurse‘s best initial response is to
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
a. refer the child to a psychologist immediately.
iu iu iu iu iu iu
b. explain that playing make believe is normal at this age. iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
c. complete a developmental screening using a validated tool. iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
d. separate the child from the mother to get more information. iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
ANS: B i u
By the end of the fourth year, it is expected that a child will engage in fantasy, so this is
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
normal at this age. A referral to a psychologist would be premature based only on the
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
complaint of the mother. Completing a developmental screening would be very appropriate
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
but not the initial response. The nurse would certainly want to get more information, but
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
separating the child from the mother is not necessary at this time.

8. A 17-year-old girl is hospitalized for appendicitis, and her mother asks the nurse why she is
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
so needy and acting like a child. The best response of the nurse is that in the hospital,
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
adolescents
iu
a. have separation anxiety. iu iu
b. rebel against rules. iu iu
c. regress because of stress. iu iu iu
d. want to know everything. iu iu iu
ANS: C i u
Regression to an earlier stage of development is a common response to stress. Separation
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
anxiety is most common in infants and toddlers. Rebellion against hospital rules is usually
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
not an issue if the adolescent understands the rules and would not create childlike behaviors.
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
An adolescent may want to ―know everything‖ with their logical thinking and deductive
iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu iu
reasoning, but that would not explain why they would act like a child.
