Theories of Health Behavior Change Questions
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is observing a child in the pediatric unit at the hospital. Which behavior would alert the nurse that the child is in Piaget's preoperational stage of intellectual development?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The preoperational stage of a child involves the use of symbols such as mental images, words, or gestures to represent objects with language development. The child naming stuffed animals is developing the ability to use words to name objects such as stuffed animals and is in the 2-7 year old range. The child classifying the art supplies is an older child in the period of formal operations and is age 11-adolescence. The child that is learning object permanence, such as the parent that returns when not seen, and the child developing motor and sensory reflexes, are both in the sensorimotor period.
