MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A married couple lives in a single-family house with their newborn son and the husband’s
daughter from a previous marriage. On the basis of the information given, what family form
best describes this family?
a.
Married-blended family
b.
Extended family
c.
Nuclear family
d.
Same-sex family
ANS: A
Married-blended families are formed as the result of divorce and remarriage. Unrelated family
members join together to create a new household. Members of an extended family are kin, or
family members related by blood, such as grandparents, aunts, and uncles. A nuclear family is
a traditional family with male and female partners and the children resulting from that union.
A same-sex family is a family with homosexual partners who cohabit with or without
children.
2. In what form do families tend to be most socially vulnerable?
a.
Married-blended family NURSINGTB.COM
b.
Extended family
c.
Nuclear family
d.
Single-parent family
ANS: D
The single-parent family tends to be vulnerable economically and socially, creating an
unstable and deprived environment for the growth potential of children. The married-blended
family, the extended family, and the nuclear family are not the most socially vulnerable.
3. The nurse should be aware that the criteria used to make decisions and solve problems within
families are based primarily on family:
a.
rituals and customs.
b.
values and beliefs.
c.

Values and beliefs are the most prevalent factors in the decision-making and problem-solving
techniques of families. Although culture may play a part in the decision-making process of a
family, ultimately values and beliefs dictate the course of action taken by family members.
Boundaries and channels affect the relationship between the family members and the health
care team, not the decisions within the family. Socialization processes may help families with
interactions with the community, but they are not the criteria used for decision making within
the family.
4. Using the family stress theory as an intervention approach for working with families
experiencing parenting, the nurse can help the family change internal context factors. These
include:
a.
Biologic and genetic makeup.
b.
Maturation of family members.
c.
The family’s perception of the event.
d.
The prevailing cultural beliefs of society.
ANS: C
The family stress theory is concerned with the family’s reaction to stressful events; internal
context factors include elements that a family can control such as psychologic defenses. It is
not concerned with biologic and genetic makeup, maturation of family members, or the
prevailing cultural beliefs of society.

5. While working in the prenatal clinic, you care for a very diverse group of patients. When
planning interventions for these families, you realize that acceptance of the interventions will
be most influenced by:
a.
educational achievement.
b.
income level.
c.
subcultural group.
d.
individual beliefs.
ANS: D
The patient’s beliefs are ultimately the key to acceptance of health care interventions.
However, these beliefs may be influenced by factors such as educational level, income level,
and ethnic background. Educational achievement, income level, and subcultural group all are
important factors. However, the nurse must understand that a woman’s concerns from her own
point of view will have the most influence on her compliance.
6. The nurse’s care of a Hispanic family includes teaching about infant care. When developing a
plan of care, the nurse bases interventions on the knowledge that in traditional Hispanic
families:
a.
breastfeeding is encouraged immediately after birth.
b.
male infants typically are circumcised.
