Cultural Diversity and Competence in Nursing Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which action by a nurse demonstrates conscious impermeability in the continuum of developing cultural humility?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Rationale: Choice A is correct as it indicates that the nurse consistently operates from a place of cultural humility, showing awareness, respect, and openness to learning from diverse cultures. This reflects a conscious effort to engage in self-reflection and ongoing learning. Choices B, C, and D either mention struggling to demonstrate cultural humility or imply a lack of proactive effort in actively practicing cultural humility, which are not reflective of conscious impermeability in the continuum of cultural humility development.
Question 2 of 5
Which action is the nurse performing when they show a preference for members of their social identity group, leading to a more positive evaluation of individuals within their own group?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: In-Group Favoritism. In-group favoritism is when a nurse shows a preference for individuals within their own social identity group. This bias leads to a more positive evaluation of individuals in the in-group. This occurs due to a sense of belonging, shared values, and familiarity within the in-group. Out-Group Homogeneity (A) refers to perceiving members of an out-group as more similar to each other than they really are. Confirmation Bias (B) is the tendency to search for, interpret, and remember information that confirms one's preexisting beliefs. Limited Interactions (D) does not specifically relate to the scenario described in the question.
Question 3 of 5
Which statement about the nursing workforce is true?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because it acknowledges the ongoing trend of increasing diversity in the nursing workforce. This is supported by data showing a rise in minority representation over the years. Choice A is incorrect as the nursing workforce is diverse. Choice B is incomplete. Choice C is incorrect as the number of minority nurses still does not fully reflect the country's demographics.
Question 4 of 5
Which statement accurately describes a large portion of foreign-born residents of the United States?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step 1: Foreign-born residents often move to the U.S. seeking economic opportunities, which are more abundant in major cities. Step 2: Major metropolitan areas offer diverse job opportunities, cultural amenities, and support networks for immigrants. Step 3: Cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Miami attract a large number of foreign-born residents due to these factors. Step 4: Rural areas typically have fewer job opportunities and resources for immigrants, making them less likely to reside there. Summary: Choice A is correct because foreign-born residents in the U.S. tend to live in major metropolitan areas for better opportunities. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the common patterns observed among this population.
