During group, the adolescents are asked to identify their role models. One of the teens responds, My parents. The nurse recognizes this response as:
 
  1. Developmentally appropriate.
  2. Grammatically incorrect.
  3. Regressive behavior.
  4. Inappropriate for the situation.

Question 2

The nurse would teach the adolescent with a conversion disorder what the person gets from having the disorder. This explanation would include a discussion of:
 
  1. Preoccupation with the belief that the person has a serious disease without physical evidence.
  2. Primary and secondary gains.
  3. An overreaction by caregivers to the client's somatic complaints.
  4. A pain cure.

Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: The development of an adolescent's sense of identity entails a preoccupation with self-image. It also entails a connection between future role and past experiences. In this case, the teen is drawing from positive experiences with the past, which is developmentally appropriate. The teen's response did not indicate regressive behavior. The response was grammatically correct and is appropriate for the situation.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: Primary and secondary gains are the two mechanisms thought to explain what a person gets from a conversion disorder. An overreaction by caregivers to the client's somatic complaints addresses somatization disorder. A pain cure would be discussed with a pain-disordered person. Hypochondriasis is a person's preoccupation with the belief that the person has a serious disease without physical evidence.
