1. A group of nursing students are discussing the impact of nonnursing theories in clinical
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
c practice. Thestudents would be correct if theychose which theoryto prioritize patient care?
c c c c c c c c c c c
a. Erikson‘sPsychosocial Theory c c
b. Paul‘sCritical-Thinking Theory c c
c. Maslow‘sHierarchyofNeeds c
d. Rosenstock‘sHealth BeliefModel c c
ANS: C c
Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs specifies the psychological and physiologic factors that affect
c c c c c c c c c c c
each person‘s physical and mental health. The nurse‘s understanding of these factors helps
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
with formulating Nursing diagnoses that address the patient‘s needs and values to prioritize
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
care. Erikson‘s Psychosocial Theory of Development and Socialization is based on
c c c c c c c c c c c
cindividuals‘ interactingand learningabout theirworld. Nurses useconcepts of developmental
c c c c c c c
theory to critically think in providing care for their patients at various stages of their lives.
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
Rosenstock(1974)developed thepsychological Health Belief Model. The modeladdresses c c c c c c c
possible reasons for why a patient may not comply with recommended health promotion
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
cbehaviors. This model is especially useful to nurses as they educate patients.

c c c c c c c c c c c c c
student would credit Florence Nightingale for which definition of nursing?
c c c c c c c c c c
a. Theimbalance between the patient and the environment decreases the capacityfor c c c c c c c c c
health. c

c. Thenurseassists the patient with essential functions toward independence. c c c c c c c
d. Human beings areinteracting in continuous motion as energyfields.
c c c c c c c c
ANS: A c
Florence Nightingale‘s (1860) concept of the environment emphasized prevention and clean
c c c c c c c c c c
air, water, and housing. This theory states that the imbalance between the patient and the
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
environment decreases the capacityforhealth and does not allow for conservation of energy.
c c c c c c c c c c c c
Hildegard Peplau (1952) focused on the roles played by the nurse and the interpersonal process
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
between a nurse and a patient. Virginia Henderson described the nurse‘s role as
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
substitutive (doing for the person), supplementary (helping the person), or complementary
c c c c c c c c c c
c(working with the person), with the goal of independence for the patient. Martha Rogers (1970)
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
developed the Science of Unitary Human Beings. She stated that human beings and their
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
cenvironments are interacting in continuous motion as infinite energy fields.

nursing school and attains the competent level after approximately 2 to 3 years of work
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
experience after graduation. To obtain the RN credential, a person must graduate from an
