MULTIPLE CHOICE zx
1. A nurse is reviewing developmental concepts for infants and children. Which statement
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
best describes development in infants and children?
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
a. Development, a predictable and orderly process, occurs at varying rates
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
within normal limits.
zx zx zx
b. Development is primarily related to the growth in the number and size of cells.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
c. Development occurs in a proximodistal direction with fine muscle zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
development occurring first.
zx zx zx
d. Development is more easily and accurately measured than growth. zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
ANS: A zx
Development, a continuous orderly process, provides the basis for increases in the childs
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx function and complexity of behavior. The increases in rate of function and complexity can
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
vary normally within limits for each child. An increase in the number and size of cells is
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
a definition for growth. Development proceeds in a proximodistal direction with fine
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
muscle organization occurring as a result of large muscle organization. Development is a
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
more complex process that is affected by many factors; therefore, it is less easily and
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx accurately measured. Growth is a predictable process with standard measurement methods.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
2. Frequent developmental assessments are important for which reason?
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
a. Stable developmental periods during infancy provide an opportunity to
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
identify any delays or deficits.
zx zx zx zx zx
b. Infants need stimulation specific to the stage of development.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
c. Critical periods of development occur during childhood.
zx zx zx zx zx zx
d. Child development is unpredictable and needs monitoring.

ANS: C zx
Critical periods are blocks of time during which children are ready to master specific
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx developmental tasks. Children can master these tasks more easily during particular periods
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx of time in their growth and developmental process. Infancy is a dynamic time of
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx development that requires frequent evaluations to assess appropriate developmental progress.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx Infants in a nurturing environment will develop appropriately and will not necessarily need
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx stimulation specific to their developmental stage. Normal growth and development are
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx orderly and proceed in a predictable pattern on the basis of each individuals abilities and
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx potentials.
3. Which factor has the greatest influence on child growth and development?
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
a. Culture
b. Environment
c. Genetics
d. Nutrition
ANS: C zx
Genetic factors (heredity) determine each individuals growth and developmental rate.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx Although factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, and family can influence genetic
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx traits, they do not eliminate the effect of the genetic endowment, which is permanent.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx Culture is a significant factor that influences how children grow toward adulthood. Culture
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx influences both growth and development but does not eliminate inborn genetic influences.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx Environment has a significant role in determining growth and development both before and
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx after birth. The environment can influence how and to which extent genetic traits are
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx manifested, but environmental factors cannot eliminate the effect of genetics. Nutrition is
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx critical for growth and plays a significant role throughout childhood.

4. A nurse is planning a teaching session with a child. According to Piagetian theory, the
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
zx period of cognitive development in which the child is able to distinguish fact from fantasy
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
is the
zx zx zx z x z x z x z x period of cognitive development.
