    Study Notes

    Intro Exam 2 Blueprint

    • Intro to Nursing course, The University of Texas at El Paso
    • Blueprint for exam 2 content

    Chapter 1: Growth and Development

    • Nature: Growth and development forces that are genetically inherited

    • Nurture: Forces that evolve with environmental exposure

    • Growth: Increase in size or number

    • Cephalocaudal: Head-to-tail growth

    • Proximodistal: Near-to-far growth (midline to extremities)

    • Progressive differentiation: Increased uniqueness in interactions

    • Simple to complex: Progression from simple to complex movements and language

    • Theorist (Kohlberg, Piaget, Erikson):

      • Kohlberg: Focuses on thinking processes for determining right/wrong
      • Piaget: Explains how new information is assimilated and accommodated for application
      • Erikson: Psychosocial theory based on Freud's psychosexual stages
    • Development: Increase in complexity and maturation

    • Stages: Reflexive, sensorimotor, pre-operational, concrete operational, formal operational

    Chapter 2: Infant Development

    • Growth: Rapid during first year, doubling birth weight by 6 months, tripling by 1 year, increase in length
    • Nutrition: Infants need high calories (110-120 cal). Small, frequent feedings are necessary.
    • Sleep: Require a lot of sleep, newborns sleep 18-22 hours, often waking to eat. Critically, always sleep on their back to prevent SIDS.
    • Developmental Milestones: Bonding, Trust vs Mistrust, and object permanence
    • Piaget's Cognitive Theory: Focuses on cognitive development, including object permanence.

    Chapter 3: Toddler Development

    • Play: Parallel play (side-by-side, without interaction), and interactive play (shared and social)
    • Speech: Developmental progression from single words to short simple phrases
    • Safety: Toddlers must be supervised, play environment should be childproof.
    • Toilet training: Myelination of nerves is key for understanding fullness/need to defecate
    • Physical Development: 16 teeth, beginning walking, increased height (4-5 inches) & weight (5-6 pounds) per year
    • Nutrition: Eaten finger foods, experience food jags.
    • Development Stages (Erikson, Kohlberg, Piaget):
      • Erikson: Autonomy vs Shame and Doubt
      • Kohlberg: Punishment and obedience.
      • Piaget: Transition from sensorimotor to pre-operational stages, early language and problem-solving

    Chapter 4: Preschool Development

    • Oedipal Complex alleged by Freud
    • Physical development: Proportional bodies, height increase (2.5-3 inches), and weight increase by 5 pounds per year
    • Nutrition: May need less calories than toddlers
    • Sleep: 9-11 hours per night
    • Play: Creative, spontaneous, with imaginative play (e.g., roles, art, music)
    • Safety: supervised, protective environments.

    Chapter 5: School-Age Development

    • Physical development: Growth is slower; weight gain per year about 6 pounds and height increase by 2 inches per year. Tonsils enlarged, primary teeth falling out.
    • Increased myelination: Leads to faster transmission of signals from the body to the brain.
    • Nutrition: Growing bodies require more calories
    • Safety and disease: More susceptible to respiratory infections, MMR, chicken pox, etc.
    • Cognition: Concrete operations (more intuitive thought)
    • Schooling: Activities appropriate for that age.
    • Vaccines: Keeping up with vaccination schedule is essential.

    Chapter 6: Adolescent Development

    • Physical Development: Growth spurt (girls, 10-12); Physical development occurs.
    • Nutrition: Need adequate nutrition (balanced meals)
    • Sleep: Growing bodies need 10 hours of sleep.
    • Safety and disease: Increased risks (more active, sexual health concerns, car crashes)
    • Cognitive development: formal operations, egocentricity.

    Chapter 7 (Young Adult Development)

    • Physical development: Peak physical condition
    • Nutrition: Fast food
    • Safety/Disease: Higher risk activities and/or behaviours like STI's, homicide, suicide
    • Development stages identified
    • Crystallized/wisdom: Intelligence is sustained in elders with no serious diseases

    Chapter 8: Middle Adult Development

    • Physical development: Decrease in sub-Q tissue
    • Nutrition: Metabolism decreases
    • Safety/Disease: Increased risk chronic illnesses

    Chapter 9: Older Adult Development

    • Physical development and decline in vision, hearing, mobility, balance, immune system
    • Nutrition: Changes for caloric intake
    • Sleep: Less sleep, more naps
    • Safety: Increased risk of falls
    • Cognitive Changes: crystallized intelligence vs. fluid intelligence:
      • Alzheimer's and dementia (diagnosis, signs, symptoms, and risk factors):
    • Developmental stages identified

    Chapter 10: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

    • Hierarchy of needs (physiological, safety & security, love & belonging, self-esteem, self-actualization)
