A maternity nurse is providing instruction to a new mother
regarding the psychosocial development of the newborn infant.
Using Erikson's psychosocial development theory, the nurse
would instruct the mother to


A. Allow the newborn infant to signal a need
B. Anticipate all of the needs of the newborn infant
C. Avoid the newborn infant during the first 10 minutes of crying
D. Attend to the newborn infant immediately when crying -
correct answer- A (According to Erikson, the caregiver
should not try to anticipate the newborn infant's needs at all
times but must allow the newborn infant to signal needs. If a
newborn is not allowed to signal a need, the newborn will not
learn how to control the environment. Erikson believed that a

, delayed or prolonged response to a newborn's signal would
inhibit the development of trust and lead to mistrust of others.)


A mother of a 3-year-old tells a clinic nurse that the child is
rebelling constantly and having temper tantrums. The nurse
most appropriately tells the mother to:


A. Punish the child every time the child says "no", to change the
behavior
B. Allow the behavior because this is normal at this age period
C. Set limits on the child's behavior
D. Ignore the child when this behavior occurs - correct
answer- C (According to Erikson, the child focuses on
independence between ages 1 and 3 years. Gaining
independence often means that the child has to rebel against
the parents' wishes. Saying things like "no" or "mine" and having
temper tantrums are common during this period of
development. Being consistent and setting limits on the child's
behavior are the necessary elements.)


A nurse is caring for a 2-year-old child who has been hospitalized
for 12 hours. Which of the following situations would most
affect the child's behavior?
