Zorluk: OrtaDevelopmental Stages and Transitions

A pediatric nurse conducts a well-child checkup for a 10-year-old client and discusses developmental milestones with the parents. Which statements by the parents indicate an understanding of the expected psychosocial and cognitive transitions for a school-age child? Select all that apply.

  1. We will assign our child daily household chores to help build a sense of competence and achievement.Cevap
  2. B
    We expect our child to begin using abstract reasoning to understand complex hypothetical situations.
  3. It is normal if our child prefers to socialize primarily with peers of the same gender.Cevap
  4. D
    Our child will likely view physical illness as a direct punishment for bad behavior.
  5. We should encourage our child's new interest in collecting and organizing different types of rocks.Cevap
  6. F
    We anticipate that our child will frequently engage in parallel play alongside siblings without interacting.

Cevap

The correct parental statements are those regarding assigning household chores to build competence, recognizing same-gender peer socialization, and encouraging the collection and organization of objects.
The school-age period (typically ages 6 to 12) is characterized by Erikson's stage of industry versus inferiority and Piaget's stage of concrete operations. During this time, children derive satisfaction from completing tasks (such as daily chores), develop an interest in sorting and classifying objects (like collecting rocks), and typically form same-sex peer groups during the latency phase. Statements reflecting these specific psychosocial and cognitive transitions indicate accurate parental understanding.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the client's developmental age group.
The client is 10 years old, which places them in the school-age developmental stage (typically ages 6 to 12).
Establishing the correct age group is necessary to apply the appropriate developmental theories and milestones.
2
Apply Erikson's psychosocial theory to the school-age child.
The child is in the 'Industry vs. Inferiority' stage, meaning they need opportunities to achieve and feel capable.
Assigning regular chores allows the child to complete tasks and build a sense of industry.
3
Apply Piaget's cognitive theory to the school-age child.
The child is in the 'Concrete Operations' stage.
Children at this age can logically classify and organize concrete objects (like a rock collection), but they do not yet possess abstract, hypothetical reasoning skills.
4
Evaluate each parental statement against developmental norms to select the correct options.
Statements regarding chores, collecting objects, and same-gender peer groups align with school-age development. Statements about abstract reasoning, magical thinking, and parallel play describe other developmental stages.
Selecting only the statements that match the 10-year-old's expected development answers the question correctly.
