Answer to Question 1

1,2,3,5
Rationale 1: Making eye contact with the nurse and caregiver is part of the child's overall affect and social skills. A child who fails to make eye contact may have an alteration in mental health.
Rationale 2: Flinching may indicate a desire to avoid contact; this can indicate a mental health issue and should be further evaluated.
Rationale 3: History of prenatal care and delivery can help determine potential alterations in mental health in a child.
Rationale 4: Head circumference is not measured in a four-year-old.
Rationale 5: Affect can be determined by facial expression and response to the nurse, helping to determine mental health.

Did you know?

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
