Question 1 of 5

While explaining an illness to a 10-year-old, what should the nurse keep in mind about cognitive development at this age?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is that 10-year-olds are able to think logically in organizing facts. At this age, children are in the concrete operational stage according to Piaget's theory of cognitive development. In this stage, they can understand and organize information logically and can manipulate objects mentally.
Choice A is incorrect because simple associations of ideas are more characteristic of earlier developmental stages.
Choice C is incorrect as it refers to egocentrism, which is more typical of the preoperational stage.
Choice D is incorrect as basing conclusions on previous experiences is a broader concept that applies across different ages and stages of development, rather than being specific to 10-year-olds in the concrete operational stage.
