Sample Questions from Chapter 13: Cultural Diversity and Community Health Nursing

Sample Question 1

Which factor is most responsible for the population growth of the United States?
a. A decrease in the death rate
b. Ongoing immigration
c. An increase in the birth rate
d. Lengthening of the normal life span

Correct Answer: b. Ongoing immigration

The number of immigrants and refugees in the United States is projected to continue to increase. The United States has grown largely through immigration. The growth will not occur because of changes in death rate, birth rate, or life span.

Sample Question 2

Which statement best defines Leininger’s term “culture universal”?
a. The preference to be cared for by someone from their own cultural group for maximum ease and comfort
b. The commonalities of values, norms, and life patterns that are held in all cultures
c. The particular values, beliefs, and patterning of behavior that is universal within a particular culture
d. The health care roles, norms, and behaviors that are involved when illness or injury occurs

Correct Answer: b. The commonalities of values, norms, and life patterns that are held in all cultures

“Culture universal” is used by Leininger to refer to the commonalities of values, norms of behavior, and life patterns that are similarly held among cultures about human behavior and lifestyles, and that form the basis for formulating theories for developing cross-cultural laws of human behavior.

Sample Question 3

A patient had wrapped a tummy band around her newborn’s abdomen. What should the nurse say to the new mother?
a. “Can you explain to me the purpose of wrapping a band around the baby’s tummy?”
b. “In the hospital, we prefer to expose the umbilical cord to air so it’s easier to put medication on it as it dries up.”
c. “Let me put some medication on the baby’s cord, and then I’ll put the tummy band back.”
d. “Please remove that band; it is not helpful as the umbilical cord needs to be kept clean and dry.”

Correct Answer: a. “Can you explain to me the purpose of wrapping a band around the baby’s tummy?”

Unless a particular action is harmful, the nurse should engage in culture care preservation and maintenance. Before acting, it is helpful to know why the mother is engaging in this behavior. If the behavior is not harmful and is culturally important, the nurse can often cooperate while providing appropriate education.
