Question 1 of 5
A school nurse is concerned about the almost skeletal appearance of one of the high school students. Although all of the following nutritional problems can occur in adolescents,which one is most often associated with a negative self-concept?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Anorexia nervosa. Adolescents with anorexia nervosa often have a distorted body image and an intense fear of gaining weight, leading to severe self-consciousness and a negative self-concept. This can result in extreme dietary restriction and excessive exercise to maintain a dangerously low body weight. Obesity (
A) is a nutritional problem associated with excess body fat, but it is not typically linked to negative self-concept in the same way as anorexia nervosa. Fad dieting (
B) may involve unhealthy eating habits but does not necessarily always result in a negative self-concept. Eating fast foods (
D) can contribute to poor nutrition and weight gain but is not directly associated with negative self-concept.
