Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Maslow's self-actualized person (1940s) is autonomous and problem-focused e.g., pursuing personal goals over majority views while valuing privacy and insight (poetry, science). Following the crowd contradicts this; justice is personal. Nurses support this e.g., unique patient goals per psychological growth.

Question 4 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client after a stroke rendered the client's right side weaker than the left. The nurse coordinates the plan of care with the physical therapist. The nurse's interventions reflect which one of nursing's four broad goals?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Nursing practice is guided by four broad goals that shape interventions based on client needs. In this scenario, the nurse's coordination with a physical therapist to address the client's weakened right side post-stroke aligns with the goal of restoring health. This involves efforts to regain lost function, improve strength, and enhance the client's physical capacity following an illness or injury. Promoting health focuses on maintaining wellness before illness occurs, such as through lifestyle education, while preventing illness aims to stop disease onset, like via vaccinations. Facilitating coping with death or disability pertains to supporting clients and families through terminal conditions or permanent impairments, not necessarily recovery. Here, the emphasis is on rehabilitation and recovery, targeting the restoration of the client's pre-stroke abilities as much as possible. This collaborative approach underscores nursing's role in helping clients reclaim their health after a significant medical event, aligning with the restorative aim.
Question 5 of 5
What are the primary purposes for conducting research in nursing?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Nursing research aims to enhance the profession's impact on patient care through targeted purposes. Providing a basis for best practice guidelines is central, as research synthesizes evidence like clinical reviews into actionable standards, ensuring care is effective and current. Developing new ways to improve assessment and diagnostic skills sharpens nurses' ability to identify and address client needs, driving innovative tools or techniques. It also supports evaluating care, offering resources to measure intervention success, and informs planning by setting evidence-based goals. Decreasing illnesses aligns more with medical research, while improving NCLEX pass rates pertains to education, not research's core. These purposes collectively advance nursing knowledge, refine practice, and elevate client outcomes, grounding the profession in science rather than tradition or assumption.
