Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a 9-year-old child who mimics shooting a gun with their hand whenever someone enters the room or tries to interact with them. This is an example of which manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Post-traumatic play. This behavior is a common manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder in children. Children often reenact traumatic events through play as a way to process and cope with their experiences. Mimicking shooting a gun can be a way for the child to express feelings of fear, powerlessness, or aggression related to the trauma. This behavior helps the child make sense of what they have experienced.

Summary of incorrect choices:
B: Men formation - There is no psychological concept known as "Men formation" in the context of post-traumatic stress disorder.
C: Depersonalization - Depersonalization involves feelings of detachment from oneself or feeling like an outside observer of one's thoughts, feelings, or body. It is not directly related to mimicking behaviors.
D: Time skewing - Time skewing refers to a disruption in the perception of time, which is not evident in the scenario described.
