Answer to Question 1

C
Sensation is not a component of the Glasgow Coma Scale. The nurse would assess eye opening, verbal response, and motor response.

Answer to Question 2

B
A consequence that is related to the inappropriate behavior is the recommended discipline. Time-out periods are more appropriate for younger children. Physical intervention is an inappropriate form of discipline. It does not connect the discipline with the child's inappropriate behavior. Lengthy discussions typically are not helpful.
