The nursing instructor notes a nursing student is very imaginative.
 
  When teaching students about designing and adjusting behavioral contracts, the nursing instructor knows that this particular student will have an advantage in developing contracts because: 1. Monitoring nonverbal communication is a secondary goal.
  2. Effective communication skill is the key negotiating tool.
  3. Reprioritization of goals is the most important issue.
  4. Creativity is an essential component.

Question 2

A growing role of the child psychiatricmental health nurse is:
 
  1. Scrutinizing the public.
  2. Promoting infant mental health.
  3. Monitoring adult inpatient psychiatric clients.
  4. Preventing mental health problems.

Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Designing a contract to which the client can adhere will maximize the chance of success. Creativity is an essential component in negotiating an effective behavioral contract. Effective communication skills and reprioritization are important, but are not necessarily the most important aspects of developing behavioral contracts. The student's inventiveness is not related to monitoring nonverbal communication.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: A growing role for child psychiatricmental health nurses involves promotion of infant mental health in high-risk families in which the infants have medical complications or the parents have a history of mental illness or substance abuse. Monitoring adults and scrutinizing the public are not part of the child psychiatricmental health nurse's role. Nurses can advocate for mental health issues, but they cannot prevent mental health problems.
