IllnesstMultiple t Choice
1. t A t nurse t is t assessing t a t client t who t is t experiencing t occasional t feelings t of t sadness t
because t of t thetrecent t death t of t a t beloved t pet. t The t clients t appetite, t sleep t patterns, t and t
daily t routine t have t not t changed. t How t should t the t nurse t interpret t the t clients t behaviors?
1. The t clients t behaviors t demonstrate t mental t illness t in t the t form t of t depression.
2. The t clients t behaviors t are t extensive, t which t indicates t the t presence t of t mental t illness.
3. The t clients t behaviors t are t not t congruent t with t cultural t norms.
4. The t clients t behaviors t demonstrate t no t functional t impairment, t indicating t no t mental t illness.
ANSWER: t 4
Rationale: t The t nurse t should t assess t that t the t clients t daily t functioning t is t not t impaired. t The t
clienttwho t experiences t feelings t of t sadness t after t the t loss t of t a t pet t is t responding t within t
normal t expectations. t Without t significant t impairment, t the t clients t distress t does t not t indicate
t a t mental t illness.

2. t At t what t point t should t the t nurse t determine t that t a t client t is t at t risk t for t
developing t a t mentaltillness?
1. When t thoughts, t feelings, t and t behaviors t are t not t reflective t of t the t DSM-5 t criteria.
2. When t maladaptive t responses t to t stress t are t coupled t with t interference t in t daily t functioning.
3. When t a t client t communicates t significant t distress.
4. When t a t client t uses t defense t mechanisms t as t ego t protection.
ANSWER: t 2
Rationale: t The t nurse t should t determine t that t the t client t is t at t risk t for t mental t illness t when t
responsestto t stress t are t maladaptive t and t interfere t with t daily t functioning. t The t DSM-5 t
indicates t that t in t ordertto t be t diagnosed t with t a t mental t illness, t daily t functioning t must t be t
significantly t impaired. t The t clients t ability t to t communicate t distress t would t be t considered t a
t positive t attribute.

3. t A t nurse t is t assessing t a t set t of t 15-year-old t identical t twins t who t respond t very t differently t
to t stress.tOne t twin t becomes t anxious t and t irritable, t and t the t other t withdraws t and t cries. t
How t should t the t nurse t explain t these t different t stress t responses t to t the t parents?
1. Reactions t to t stress t are t relative t rather t than t absolute; t individual t responses t to t stress t vary.
2. It t is t abnormal t for t identical t twins t to t react t differently t to t similar t stressors.
3. Identical t twins t should t share t the t same t temperament t and t respond t similarly t to t stress.
4. Environmental t influences t to t stress t weigh t more t heavily t than t genetic t influences.

, ANSWER: t 1
Rationale: t The t nurse t should t explain t to t the t parents t that, t although t the t twins t have t
identical t DNA,tthere t are t several t other t factors t that t affect t reactions t to t stress. t Mental t health
t is t a t state t of t being t thattis t relative t to t the t individual t client. t Environmental t influences t and t
temperament t can t affect t stress t reactions.

4. t Which t client t should t the t nurse t anticipate t to t be t most t receptive t to t psychiatric t
treatment?t1. t A t Jewish, t female t social t worker.
2. A t Baptist, t homeless t male.
3. A t Catholic, t black t male.
4. A t Protestant, t Swedish t business t executive.
ANSWER: t 1
Rationale: t The t nurse t should t anticipate t that t the t client t of t Jewish t culture t would t place t a t
high t importance t on t preventative t health t care t and t would t consider t mental t health t as t equally
t important t astphysical t health. t Women t are t also t more t likely t to t seek t treatment t for t mental t
health t problems t than t men.

5. A t psychiatric t nurse t intern t states, t This t clients t use t of t defense t mechanisms t should t be t
eliminated.tWhich t is t a t correct t evaluation t of t this t nurses t statement?
1. Defense t mechanisms t can t be t appropriate t responses t to t stress t and t need t not t be t eliminated.
2. Defense t mechanisms t are t a t maladaptive t attempt t of t the t ego t to t manage t anxiety t
andshouldtalways t be t eliminated.
3. Defense t mechanisms, t used t by t individuals t with t weak t ego t integrity, t should t be t
discouragedandtnot t eliminated.
4. Defense t mechanisms t cause t disintegration t of t the t ego t and t should t be t fostered t and t
encouraged.
ANSWER: t 1
Rationale: t The t nurse t should t determine t that t defense t mechanisms t can t be t appropriate t during
t timestof t stress. t The t client t with t no t defense t mechanisms t may t have t a t lower t tolerance t for t
stress, t thus t leading t to t anxiety t disorders. t Defense t mechanisms t should t be t confronted t when
t they t impede t the t client t from t developing t healthy t coping t skills.

questions. t Thetclient t angrily t responds, t Im t here t for t my t heart, t not t my t head t problems. t
Which t is t the t nurses t best t response?
1. Its t just t a t routine t part t of t our t assessment. t All t clients t are t asked t these t same t questions.
2. Why t are t you t concerned t about t these t types t of t questions?
3. Psychological t factors, t like t excessive t stress, t have t been t found t to t affect t medical t conditions.
4. We t can t skip t these t questions, t if t you t like. t It t isnt t imperative t that t we t complete t this t section.
