Question 1 of 5
A nurse is providing counseling for a family that consists of two parents and their two adolescent children. Which of the following family members should the nurse identify as acting in the role of monopolizer?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: The adolescent daughter who attempts to dominate the discussion. This behavior is indicative of monopolizing, where one family member dominates conversation or decision-making, limiting the participation of others. This can hinder effective communication and lead to imbalance in the family dynamic. In this scenario, the nurse should address the daughter's behavior to promote healthy dialogue and involvement of all family members.
A: The father intervening in arguments can be seen as mediation rather than monopolizing.
B: The mother expressing hostility is unrelated to monopolizing behavior.
D: The son's refusal to share personal feelings does not necessarily indicate monopolizing behavior.
