Question 1 of 5
What term is defined as the ability to obtain, understand, synthesize, communicate, and apply health-related information?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: personal health literacy. Personal health literacy refers to an individual's ability to access, understand, evaluate, and communicate health information to make informed decisions about their health. This term specifically focuses on an individual's skills and capabilities in managing health-related information. A: Advanced directives are legal documents that outline an individual's wishes regarding medical treatment in the event they are unable to communicate their preferences. This is not the same as the ability to understand and apply health-related information. C: Organizational health literacy refers to an organization's capacity to provide health information and services effectively to its members or employees. This choice does not address an individual's personal ability to manage health information. D: Information literacy is the ability to access, evaluate, and use information effectively. While this is a related concept, personal health literacy is more specific to health-related information and decision-making.

Question 3 of 5
When Melissa was a small child, she insisted that she was a boy, refused to wear dresses, and wanted to be called Mitch. As Melissa reached puberty, she no longer displayed a desire to be male. This change in identity is considered:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: Choice C, "Normal," is correct because many children go through phases where they experiment with gender identity. Melissa's behavior was typical of a child exploring their identity and is not indicative of a permanent gender identity. Gender dysphoria (A) involves persistent distress due to a disconnect between assigned gender and gender identity, which doesn't apply here. Reaction formation (B) involves expressing the opposite of one's true feelings, which doesn't fit the scenario. Early transgender syndrome (D) is a made-up term and not a recognized psychological concept.
Question 4 of 5
On an inpatient psychiatric unit, which of the following actions exemplify the nurse's role of teacher?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Rationale: - Choice C is correct because teaching involves presenting information to enhance understanding. - Teaching aids in promoting client and family knowledge about mental illness. - This empowers them to make informed decisions and participate in treatment. - Choices A and B involve assessment and orientation tasks, not directly related to teaching. - Choice D focuses on maintaining a therapeutic environment, not teaching content.
Question 5 of 5
A college student received an invitation to attend the wedding of a close friend who lives across the country. The student is afraid of flying. Which type of therapy would be most helpful for this patient?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Systematic desensitization. This therapy gradually exposes the patient to their fear in a controlled manner to reduce anxiety. In this case, the student's fear of flying can be addressed by incrementally exposing them to flying-related stimuli, helping them build confidence and reduce fear. Choice A (Psychoanalysis) focuses on exploring unconscious thoughts and childhood experiences, not directly addressing the fear of flying. Choice B (Aversion therapy) involves associating a negative stimulus with the unwanted behavior, which may not be effective for overcoming a fear of flying. Choice D (Short-term dynamic therapy) is a brief form of psychoanalytic therapy, but it may not provide the structured approach needed to address specific phobias like fear of flying.
