The school nurse is discussing the importance of emotional and behavioral self-regulation in the development of competence in school-age children. One foster parent asks the nurse how she can specifically work toward self-regulation with a child.
 
  The nurse should suggest that parents plan to:
  1. Avoid restrictions on the child's behavior
  2. Provide concrete, constructive feedback
  3. Set up hard-and-fast rules to be followed
  4. Establish a daily schedule of chores

Question 2

A nursing diagnosis that should be considered for an individual who had inconsistent, unpre-dictable, and discontinuous care as an infant would be:
 
  1. Anxiety
  2. Ineffective coping
  3. Hopelessness
  4. Role confusion

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Feedback helps the child see that other's opinions of him are connected to his behavior. Self-regulated behavior can be reinforced and positive relations with peers fostered.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
A sense of hope is the outcome of Erikson's stage of trust versus mistrust. Inconsistent, unpre-dictable, and discontinuous care would lead to hopelessness and to a mistrust of self and the world. No data are given to support any of the other diagnoses.
