Chapter 01: Cultural Competency
Ball: Seidel’s Guide to Physical Examination, 10th Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Which statement is true regarding the relationship of physical characteristics and culture?
a. Physical characteristics should be used to identify members of cultural groups.
b. There is a difference between distinguishing cultural characteristics and
distinguishing physical characteristics.
c. To be a member of a specific culture, an individual must have certain identifiable
physical characteristics.
d. Gender and race are the two essential physical characteristics used to identify
cultural groups.
ANS: B
Physical characteristics are not used to identify cultural groups; there is a difference between
the two, and they are considered separately. Physical characteristics should not be used to
identify members of cultural groups. To be a member of a specific culture, an individual does
not need to have certain identifiable physical characteristics. You should not confuse physical
characteristics with cultural characteristics. Gender and race are physical characteristics, not
cultural characteristics, and are not used to identify cultural groups.
2. An image of any group that rejects its potential for originality or individuality is known as
a(n)
a. acculturation.
b. norm.
c. stereotype.
d. ethnos.
ANS: C
A fixed image of any group that rejects its potential for originality or individuality is the
definition of stereotype. Acculturation is the process of adopting another culture’s behaviors.
A norm is a standard of allowable behavior within a group. Ethnos implies the same race or
nationality.
3. Mr. L presents to the clinic with severe groin pain and a history of kidney stones. Mr. L’s son
tells you that for religious reasons, his father wishes to keep any stone that is passed into the
urine filter that he has been using. What is your most appropriate response?
a. ―With your father’s permission, we will examine the stone and request that it be
returned to him.‖
b. ―The stone must be sent to the lab for examination and therefore cannot be kept.‖
c. ―We cannot let him keep his stone because it violates our infection control policy.‖
d. ―We don’t know yet if your father has another kidney stone, so we must analyze
this one.‖
, ANS: A
We should be willing to modify the delivery of health care in a manner that is respectful and
in keeping with the patient’s cultural background. ―With your father’s permission, we will
examine the stone and request that it be returned to him‖ is the most appropriate response.
―The stone must be sent to the lab for examination and therefore cannot be kept‖ and ―We
don’t know yet if your father has another kidney stone, so we must analyze this one‖ do not
support the patient’s request. ―We cannot let him keep his stone because it violates our
infection control policy‖ does not provide a reason that it would violate an infection control
policy.
4. The motivation of the healthcare professional to ―want to‖ engage in the process of becoming
culturally competent, not ―have to,‖ is called
a. cultural knowledge.
b. cultural awareness.
c. cultural desire.
d. cultural skill.
ANS: C
Cultural encounters are the continuous process of interacting with patients from culturally
diverse backgrounds to validate, refine, or modify existing values, beliefs, and practices about
a cultural group and to develop cultural desire, cultural awareness, cultural skill, and cultural
knowledge. Cultural awareness is deliberate self-examination and in-depth exploration of
one’s biases, stereotypes, prejudices, assumptions, and ―-isms‖ that one holds about
individuals and groups who are different from them. Cultural knowledge is the process of
seeking and obtaining a sound educational base about culturally and ethnically diverse groups.
Cultural skill is the ability to collect culturally relevant data regarding the patient’s presenting
problem, as well as accurately performing a culturally based physical assessment in a
culturally sensitive manner. Cultural desire is the motivation of the healthcare professional to
want to engage in the process of becoming culturally competent, not have to.
5. Mr. Marks is a 66-year-old patient who presents for a physical examination to the clinic.
Which question has the most potential for exploring a patient’s cultural beliefs related to a
health problem?
a. ―How often do you have medical examinations?‖
b. ―What is your age, race, and educational level?‖
c. ―What types of symptoms have you been having?‖
d. ―Why do you think you are having these symptoms?‖
ANS: D
―Why do you think you are having these symptoms?‖ is an open-ended question that avoids
stereotyping, is sensitive and respectful toward the individual, and allows for cultural data to
be exchanged. The other questions do not explore the patient’s cultural beliefs about health
problems.
6. The definition of ill or sick is based on a
a. stereotype.
b. cultural behavior.
c. belief system.
d. cultural attitude.
ANS: C
The definition of ill or sick is based on the individual’s belief system and is determined in
large part by his or her enculturation.
7. A 22-year-old female nurse is interviewing an 86-year-old male patient. The patient avoids
eye contact and answers questions only by saying, ―Yeah,‖ ―No,‖ or ―I guess so.‖ Which of
the following is appropriate for the interviewer to say or ask?
a. ―We will be able to communicate better if you look at me.‖
b. ―It’s hard for me to gather useful information because your answers are so short.‖
c. ―Are you uncomfortable talking with me?‖
d. ―Does your religion make it hard for you to answer my questions?‖
ANS: C
It is all right to ask if the patient is uncomfortable with any aspect of your person and to talk
about it; the other choices are less respectful.
8. As you explain your patient’s condition to her husband, you notice that he is leaning toward
you and pointedly blinking his eyes. Knowing that he is from England, your most appropriate
response to this behavior is to
a. tell him that you understand his need to be alone.
b. ask whether he has any questions.
c. ask whether he would prefer to speak to the clinician.
d. tell him that it is all right to be angry.
ANS: B
The English worry about being overheard and tend to speak in modulated voices so, when
they lean in toward you, they are probably poised to ask a question.
9. An aspect of traditional Western medicine that may be troublesome to many Hispanics,
Native Americans, Asians, and Middle Eastern groups is Western medicine’s attempts to
a. use a holistic approach that views a particular medical problem as part of a bigger
picture.
b. determine a specific cause for every problem in a precise way.
c. establish harmony between a person and the entire cosmos.
, d. restore balance in an individual’s life.
ANS: B
A more scientific approach to healthcare problem solving, in which a cause can be determined
for every problem in a precise way, is a Western approach. Hispanics, Native Americans,
Asians, and Arabs embrace a more holistic approach. Using a holistic approach, establishing
harmony between a person and the entire cosmos, and restoring balance in an individual’s life
would not be troublesome to many Hispanics, Native Americans, Asians, and Arabs.
10. The attitudes of the healthcare professional
a. are largely irrelevant to the success of relationships with the patient.
b. do not influence patient behavior.
c. are difficult for the patient to sense.
d. are culturally derived.
ANS: D
The attitudes of the healthcare provider are foundationally derived from his or her own
culture; understanding this is relevant to the success of patient relationships. Attitudes of the
healthcare professional are easily detected by others, and they influence patient behavior; they
are not irrelevant to the success of relationships with the patient; they do influence patient
behavior; and they are not difficult for the patient to sense.
11. Mr. Sanchez is a 45-year-old gentleman who has presented to the office for a physical
examination to establish a new primary care healthcare provider. Which of the following
describes a physical, not a cultural, differentiator?
a. Race
b. Rite
c. Ritual
d. Norm
ANS: A
Race is a physical, not a cultural, differentiator. Rite is a prescribed, formal, customary
observance. Ritual is a stereotypic behavior regulating religious, social, and professional
behaviors. A norm is a prescribed standard of allowable behavior within a group.
12. Mr. Abdul is a 40-year-old Middle Eastern man who presents to the office for a first visit with
the complaint of new abdominal pain. You are concerned about violating a cultural
prohibition when you prepare to do his rectal examination. The best tactic would be to
a. forego the examination for fear of violating cultural norms.
b. ask a colleague from the same geographic area if this examination is acceptable.
c. inform the patient of the reason for the examination and ask if it is acceptable to
him.
d. refer the patient to a provider more knowledgeable about cultural differences.
