7. Which factor most impacts the type of injury a child is susceptible to, according to the child’s
age?
a. Physical health of the child
b. Developmental level of the child
c. Educational level of the child
d. Number of responsible adults in the home
ANS: B
The child’s developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur. The child’s
physical health may facilitate the child’s recovery from an injury but does not impact the type of
injury. Educational level is related to developmental level, but it is not as important as the child’s
developmental level in determining the type of injury. The number of responsible adults in the
home may affect the number of unintentional injuries, but the type of injury is related to the
child’s developmental stage.

c. Discoveries of new therapies to treat health problems
d. Behavioral, social, and educational problems that alter health
ANS: D
The new morbidity reflects the behavioral, social, and educational problems that interfere with
the child’s social and academic development. It is currently estimated that the incidence of these
issues is from 5% to 30%. Limitations in major activities of daily living and unintentional
injuries that result in chronic health problems are included in morbidity data. Discovery of new
therapies would be reflected in changes in morbidity data over time.
