Freud postulated that child adopts parental standards and traits through
- A. Imitation
- B. Introjection
- C. Identification
- D. Regression
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory (1900s) posits children adopt parental standards via identification e.g., mimicking a parent's empathy. Imitation (copying), introjection (internalizing), and regression (reverting) differ. This shapes the superego, influencing nursing behaviors e.g., empathy from role models affecting caregiver styles and patient interactions.
Which of the following is TRUE about the human needs?
- A. May not be deferred
- B. Are not interrelated
- C. Met in exact and rigid way
- D. Priorities are alterable
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Maslow's theory (1940s) allows need priorities to shift e.g., delaying hunger for safety in crisis. Needs interrelate (safety affects esteem), aren't rigid, and can be deferred. Nurses adapt care e.g., addressing fear before nutrition in trauma reflecting this alterability, key to responsive patient management.
