Question 2

A pediatric nurse develops an educational presentation for parents from a socially and economically disadvantaged area to help them create stimulating, rich environments for their children.
 
  Although all children may benefit from an enriched environment, the nurse should primarily target which of the following age groups?
  A) Children older than 6 years, because they are developmentally ready for a new learning environment
  B) Infants and children up to 18 months of age, because, by that time, the developing brain has reached 90 of its adult size and the foundations for future cognitive and social function are in place
  C) Children older than 2 years, because younger children are still attached to their mothers
  D) Infants and children younger than 3 years, because the brain is still rapidly developing

Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, D
Feedback:
The stressdiathesis model was developed to demonstrate the dynamic between the individual's predisposition (diathesis) toward developing a certain illness, and the levels of stress to which they are subjected and that exceed coping ability. This model does not prioritize the roles of neuroplasticity, culture, or adherence to treatment.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
The systems that allow people to form and maintain emotional relationships develop during the first years of life. By the time that children are 3 years old, the brain is 90 of its adult size, and the emotional, behavioral, cognitive, and social foundation is in place for the rest of life. An argument can thus be made that interventions should focus on health promotion during this period of development.
