Question 1 of 5
After an assessment, the nurse realizes that a client demonstrates cognitive responses to stress. What behaviors did the client demonstrate for the nurse to make this clinical determination?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Decreased attention to detail. This behavior indicates cognitive responses to stress as it reflects difficulty focusing and processing information due to the impact of stress on cognitive functions. Irritability (
A), lethargy (
B), and anger (
C) are emotional responses to stress, not cognitive.
Therefore, they do not directly demonstrate cognitive responses. A client demonstrating decreased attention to detail is likely experiencing cognitive difficulties in handling stress, which is why it is the correct choice.
