Chapter 38: Stress and Coping

Potter et al.: Fundamentals of Nursing, 9th Edition

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. In a natural disaster relief facility, the nurse observes that an older-adult male has a recovery
plan, while a 25-year-old male is still overwhelmed by the disaster situation. A nurse is planning
care for both patients. Which factors will the nurse consider about the different coping reactions?


a. Restorative care factors



b. Strong financial resource factors



c. Maturational and situational factors



d. Immaturity and intelligence factors


ANS: C

Maturational factors and situational factors can affect people differently depending on their life
experiences. An older individual would have more life experiences to draw from and to analyze
on why he was successful, whereas a younger individual would have fewer life experiences
based on chronological age to analyze for patterns of previous success. Nothing in the scenario
implies that either man is in restorative care, has strong financial resources, or is immature or
intelligent.



2. A woman who was sexually assaulted a month ago presents to the emergency department with
reports of recurrent nightmares, fear of going to sleep, repeated vivid memories of the sexual
assault, and inability to feel much emotion. Which medical problem will the nurse expect to see
documented in the chart?


a. General adaptation syndrome

b. Post-traumatic stress disorder



c. Acute stress disorder



d. Alarm reaction


ANS: B

Post-traumatic stress disorder is characterized by vivid recollections of the traumatic event and
emotional detachment and often is accompanied by nightmares. General adaptation syndrome is
the expected reaction to a major stressor. Acute stress disorder is a similar diagnosis that differs
from PTSD in duration of symptoms. Alarm reaction involves physiological events such as
increased activation of the sympathetic nervous system that would have occurred at the time of
the sexual assault.



3. The nurse teaches stress-reduction and relaxation training to a health education group of
patients after cardiac bypass surgery. Which level of intervention is the nurse using?


a. Primary



b. Secondary



c. Tertiary



d. Quad
