Nursing identifies its domain in a paradigm that includes:
- A. The person, health, environment/situation and nursing
- B. Concepts, theory, health and environment
- C. Health, person, environment and theory
- D. Nurses, physicians, models and client needs
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Nursing's paradigm comprises person (client), health (well-being goal), environment/situation (context), and nursing (practice) a metaparadigm unifying theories like Nightingale's or Watson's. This defines nursing's scope, focusing on client care holistically. Concepts, theory, health, and environment are abstract, not a complete paradigm missing 'person' and 'nursing.' Health, person, environment, and theory swap 'nursing' for 'theory,' confusing framework with product. Nurses, physicians, models, and needs mix roles and tools, not core concepts. The person, health, environment, and nursing quartet encapsulates nursing's domain, guiding practice and research comprehensively.
Rommel told Budek, 'Do you think Im crazy?' Budek responded, 'Do you think your crazy?' Budek uses what example of therapeutic communication?
- A. Reflecting
- B. Restating
- C. Exploring
- D. Seeking clarification
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Budek's 'Do you think you're crazy?' is reflecting (A), redirecting Rommel's question to explore his feelings or self-perception. Restating (B) repeats verbatim (e.g., 'You think you're crazy?'). Exploring (C) digs deeper (e.g., 'Why do you ask?'). Clarification (D) seeks meaning. Reflecting, per Peplau, fosters self-reflection, apt for Rommel's doubt, making A correct.
A nurse observes that the past five clients referred from a community clinic have been treated for drug and/or alcohol overdose. Based on this information, the nurse assumes that the clinic specializes in the treatment of substance use. This is an example of what type of reasoning?
- A. Deductive reasoning
- B. Inductive reasoning
- C. General systems theory
- D. Nursing process
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Inductive reasoning involves observing specific instances to form a general conclusion, as seen here. The nurse notes five overdose cases from a clinic and infers it specializes in substance use, moving from particular observations to a broader assumption. Deductive reasoning reverses this, applying a general rule (e.g., all overdose clinics specialize) to a specific case, not fitting here. General systems theory analyzes wholes and parts, irrelevant to this logic. The nursing process is a care method, not reasoning. Inductive reasoning's strength lies in pattern recognition, useful in nursing for hypothesis generation like identifying care trends but risks overgeneralization without further data. It shapes initial assessments, guiding deeper inquiry into the clinic's role, reflecting nurses' adaptive thinking in real-world settings.

- B. Includes acupuncture
- C. Always replaces medical treatment
- D. May improve well-being

Which of the following meal choices is suitable for a 6-month-old infant?
- A. Egg white, formula, and orange juice
- B. Apple juice, carrots, whole milk
- C. Rice cereal, apple juice, formula
- D. Melba toast, egg yolk, whole milk
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rice cereal, apple juice, and formula suit a 6-month-old, aligning with early solid introduction gluten-free, digestible, and safe, per pediatric guidelines. Egg whites risk allergies, whole milk isn't recommended before 1 year, and melba toast is a choking hazard. Nurses advise this menu to support growth, avoiding allergens or hard foods, ensuring nutritional balance for this developmental stage.
