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)
- Types of Families (with examples): Traditional, non-traditional, blended or merged, LGBTQ, Communes
