The nursing instructor is discussing theories to explain sexual dysfunction. The nurse states that behavioral theorists believe sexual dysfunction may be related to learned responses to:
 
  1. Lack of concern with sexual performance.
  2. Poor communication skills.
  3. Vast sexual experience with a variety of partners.
  4. Effective stimulation by a sexual partner.

Question 2

A client asks the nurse about the doctor's comment that he may have problems due to delayed synaptic transmission in his brain. The nurse explains that the best way to describe a synaptic transmission is which of the following?
 
  1. An electrochemical process called neurotransmission
  2. Where the axon is released
  3. When the receptors bind to neurons
  4. The space where neurotransmitters match up with receptors

Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale: Behaviorists believe sexual dysfunction is a learned response related to poor communication skills. Lack of sexual experience with self or a partner, concern with sexual performance, and ineffective stimulation contribute to sexual dysfunction.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: In the Neurobiologic Factor Model, the neurons of the brain are responsible for information processing. Neurotransmission is the electrochemical process that explains how the messages move through the communication circuit. Neurotransmission is a process, not a space where the transmitters match up, when receptors bind to neurons, or where the axon is released.
