A
Principles of Growth and Development
2
Q
Why are the principles of growth and development important?
A
(A) Because it helps us provide an opportunity to assess our patients.
(B This supplies anticipatory guidance, mostly specifically related to each age group.
3
Q
This is a term used to denote the increase in physical size or quantitative change. It is something that is measurable.
A
Growth
4
Q
What is growth in terms of cellular changes?
A
Growth involves an increase in cell size due to cell division and protein synthesis, which leads to an increase in the size and weight of body parts.
5
Q
How is growth in weight measured?
A
Measured by kilograms or pounds.
6
Q
How is growth in height measured?
A
Measured by centimeters or inches.
7
Q
This indicates an increase in skill or ability to function. It is characterized to be the qualitative change.
A
Development
8
Q
How is the development of a child measured?
A
It is measured by observing the child’s ability to perform a specific task.
(A) Development is measured by observing a child’s ability to perform specific tasks, tracking progress from basic to advanced stages.
(B) Development is supported by learning and maturation, expanding the individual’s capacity to function.
9
Q
Give an example of a developmental milestone in fine motor skills.
A
Picking up small objects, like raisins, is an example of a fine motor skill milestone in children.
10
Q
This is defined as a standardized test to measure the development of a child.
A
Metro Mania Development Screening Test (MMDST)
11
Q
What is the general process of Growth & Development (G&D)?
A
(A) G&D is a continuous process from conception to death, involving new cell growth and the acquisition of new skills.
(B) From newborn to infancy, growth is rapid, with an infant’s weight typically tripling from birth.
(C) It follows a definite and predictable pattern of trends.
12
Q
Do growth and development follow patterns?
A
Yes, G&D follow definite, predictable patterns and trends that proceed in an orderly sequence.
(A) Growth in height follows a sequence from shorter to taller over time, typically in an orderly progression.
(B) Motor development follows predictable orders, such as muscle use for creeping, standing, walking, and then running.
(C) There are periods of accelerated and decelerated growth rates.
13
Q
Do all body systems develop at the same rate?
A
No, body systems grow at different rates. Some tissues, like neurologic tissue, develop more rapidly than others.
(A) Neurologic tissue experiences peak growth during the first year of life.
(B) Genital tissue completes its growth as the individual reaches puberty.
14
Q
This pertains to the growth that progresses from the head down to the lower extremities.
A
Cephalocaudal Development
15
Q
This pertains to the development where growth starts at the center of the body and moves outward, seen as infants gain shoulder control before fine hand movements.
A
Proximodistal Development
16
Q
Describe the initial hand use in infant development.
A
Infants initially use their hand as one unit before developing the ability to manipulate individual fingers.
17
Q
What is the sequence from gross to refined skills in development?
A
Development progresses from gross motor skills to refined skills, in parallel with proximodistal development.
(A) Once children control their toes and other distal body parts, they can progress to more refined, coordinated movements.
18
Q
Is there an optimal time for learning new skills in children?
A
Yes, there is an optimal time for learning experiences, depending on when the nervous system is mature enough to support the skill.
(A) Children cannot learn specific skills until their nervous system matures enough to allow for the coordination and control needed for that skill.
19
Q
Why is nervous system maturity essential for skill development?
A
Nervous system maturity is essential because it enables the physical control required for skills like sitting, grasping, and walking.
20
Q
What must occur before an infant can start grasping objects?
A
The grasp reflex must fade before an infant can intentionally grasp objects.
21
Q
How do neonatal reflexes affect development?
A
Neonatal reflexes, like the grasp reflex, must be lost before new, voluntary developmental skills can proceed.
(A) Many skills and behaviors are learned through repeated practice, allowing children to secure each developmental step.
22
Q
What is the role of practice in child development?
A
Practice is crucial for refining and mastering new skills, supporting the progression from basic to advanced abilities.
23
Q
This kind of development proceeds from the head down to the tail, with improvement in structure and function starting in the head, then moving to the trunk, and finally to the legs.
A
Cephalocaudal Development
24
Q
What developmental milestones follow the cephalocaudal pattern?
A
A child first gains head control, then can sit, and eventually learns to walk.
25
This moves from the center of the body outward, progressing from the central axis toward the extremities.
Proximodistal Development
26
What are examples of proximodistal development?
In proximodistal development, infants first gain control of shoulder movements before fine motor skills, such as using their hands and fingers, develop.
27
Under this kind of development, the growth progresses from broad actions to precise skills, as seen when children initially hold large objects with both arms, then one hand, and later pick up small objects with fingers.
General to Specific Responses
28
What are the two major factors influencing growth and development?
(A) Genetics
(B) Environment
29
This factor influencing growth and development controls the physiological functions and characteristics of an individual. Mutations or chromosomal abnormalities can lead to genetic disorders, which may be inherited or congenital.
Genetics (through DNA segments)
30
This factor influencing growth and development provides essentials like food, safety, and emotional support, which are crucial for healthy growth and development.
The environment (particularly a supportive family)
31
How does genetics help in making each child unique?
Each child is unique, gender-related characteristics will influence growth and development.
32
These make up a person’s basic genetic structure and influence traits like gender, health, intelligence, and temperament.
Chromosomes
33
How does gender influence growth and development?
At birth, girls are typically lighter and shorter than boys, but by puberty (ages 14-16), boys generally grow taller and heavier than girls.
34
How does health impact growth in children?
Children with genetically transmitted diseases may grow more slowly, depending on the illness type and any treatments received, potentially affecting normal growth and development.
35
How does intelligence relate to growth and skill acquisition?
Children with high intelligence tend to advance more quickly in cognitive skills, though not necessarily in physical growth, as they may focus more on books and mental activities.
36
These children are not good in physical skills. They don't generally grow faster physically as they spend more time in books and mental games.
Intelligent Children
37
This pertains to a person's usual reaction pattern to environmental stimuli, an inborn characteristic present from birth.
Temperament
38
How does temperament influence a child's behavior?
(A) Unlike moral and cognitive development, which progresses in stages, temperament is inborn and does not change through developmental stages.
(B) Temperament shapes a child’s ways of thinking, behaving, and reacting to different situations and stimuli, creating a consistent response pattern.
39
What factors contribute to a child’s temperament?
Temperament is influenced by genetics and is evident from birth, affecting how a child responds to new phases and environmental changes.
40
What are the three (3) main patterns of temperament attributes?
(A) Easy Child
(B) Difficult Child
(C) Slow to wam up Child
41
This child is characterized to be even-tempered, regular and predictable in habits, positive, open to change, and displays mild to moderate mood intensity. About 40% of children fall into this category.
Easy Child
42
This child is characterized to be highly active, irritable, and has irregular habits. They require a structured environment and struggle to adapt to new routines and situations.
Difficult Child
43
This child reacts negatively to new stimuli, adapts slowly with repeated contact, is generally inactive, does not readily participate, and tends to be moody with low-intensity reactions.
Slow to Warm Up Child
44
How does a Difficult Child handle new routines or changes?
A Difficult Child struggles with new routines, needing structure and consistency to feel comfortable, as they are not naturally adaptable.
44
How does an Easy Child typically react to new stimuli?
An Easy Child approaches new stimuli positively and is adaptable to changes in their environment.
45
What is the initial reaction of a Slow to Warm Up Child to new situations?
A Slow to Warm Up Child typically reacts with mild negativity, showing low participation and adapting slowly unless given repeated exposure.
46
This refers to the regularity in the timing of physiological functions like eating, sleeping, and toileting, indicating a person’s biological rhythms.
Rhythmicity
46
This indicates physical motion during activities. This refers to how physically active a person is. Some people feel the need to be up and moving and on the go all the time, whereas other people are more likely to move more slowly and engage in quieter, calmer activities.
Activity Level
47
Differentiate the activity level between high-activity and low-activity children.
High-activity children are often restless, while low-activity children tend to engage in quieter activities and are less physically active.
48
This describes a child's initial response to new stimuli. Approaching children explore new situations eagerly, while withdrawing children are slower to warm up and need time to adapt.
Approach-withdrawal
49
This is characterized as the ease with which a child adjusts to changes or new situations. Highly adaptable children transition easily, while those who are slower to adapt may struggle with changes.
Adaptability
50
This pertains to the level of sensitivity to sensory stimuli like sound and light needed to evoke a response. Children vary in their sensitivity, affecting their reactions to their environment.
Sensory Threshold
51
This pertains to the quality of mood reflects a child’s general disposition, ranging from positive (happy and upbeat) to negative (subdued or more reserved).
Predominant Quality
52
This refers to the energy level of a child’s reactions. High-intensity children react strongly to both positive and negative events, while low-intensity children have more subdued responses.
Intensity of Mood Expression
53
This pertains to the length of time or the ease with which external stimuli divert a child’s attention. Highly distractible children are easily sidetracked, while those with low distractibility can stay focused despite distractions.
Distractability
54
These individuals are characterized to be hot-headed yet compassionate, outgoing, and adventurous.
Sanguine Individuals
55
These individuals are characterized to be calm and easygoing, shy, and sometimes indecisive. They keep their calmness, can be a bit bratty, and tend to follow their own path.
Phlegmatic Individuals
56
These individuals are characterized to be often group leaders, efficient, organized, but can be bossy.
Melancholic Individuals
57
These individuals are characterized to be goofy, bubbly, fun to be around, and have a "YOLO" attitude, which sometimes lands them in trouble.
Choleric Individuals
58
What environmental factors influence a child's growth and development?
(A) Socio-economic status
(B) Parent-child relationship
(C) Ordinal position in the family
(D) Health
(E) Nutrition
59
How does socio-economic status affect a child's growth?
Socio-economic status impacts access to healthcare, nutrition, and immunization. Children in lower socio-economic settings may experience insufficient nutrition, incomplete immunizations, and higher susceptibility to diseases.
60
Why is nutrition important for a child's development?
Proper nutrition provides essential nutrients for growth and immunity. Inadequate nutrition can lead to underweight conditions, making children more vulnerable to illnesses.
61
How does the parent-child relationship affect growth and development?
A child who feels loved and cared for thrives more than one who doesn’t. Quality time with parents is more valuable than the amount of time, and effective parental care supports better development.
62
These are to known to influence learning and social skills, as children often learn by observing and interacting with siblings.
Ordinal position (such as being the firstborn, middle, youngest, or only child)
63
How can health impact a child's development?
Both environmental illnesses and genetic conditions can affect growth and development. Exposure to unhealthy environments can impair physical and cognitive growth.
64
Why is nutrition critical in child development?
Adequate nutrition supports growth, intelligence, and immunity. Poor maternal and childhood nutrition can limit growth and intelligence potential and weaken resistance to infections, affecting lifelong health.
(A) Health eating pattern leads to better health in adult years

Superego (It is learned and operates on extremes (good or bad). It also inhibits or breaks the urges of the id).
97
When does the Superego develop?
The Superego forms around age 5, largely through the resolution of the Oedipal complex and internalized moral lessons from parents.
98
What principle does the Superego operate on?
The Superego operates on the morality principle, encouraging socially responsible and morally acceptable behavior.
99
How does the Superego relate to the Id?
The Superego is in direct opposition to the Id, working to inhibit the Id's impulses that conflict with moral and ethical standards.
100
What are the two main components of the Superego?
The Superego consists of the Ego ideals, representing the person we strive to be, and the Conscience, which determines right and wrong.
101
How is the Superego developed?
The Ego ideals are developed through rewards, while the Conscience forms through punishment and moral instruction.
102
Describe how the Superego operates in terms of thought processes.
The Superego operates on extremes, viewing things as either completely good or bad, often imposing irrational standards of perfection.
103
What role does the Superego play in decision-making?
The Superego persuades the Ego to pursue moralistic goals rather than just realistic ones, encouraging behavior that aligns with ethical standards.

How does an impatient caregiver affect a toddler's development of autonomy?
An impatient caregiver may make the child feel self-conscious or inadequate, leading to shame and doubt in their abilities.
150
This is a significant task that allows toddlers to gain control over their bodies, promoting a sense of independence and self-mastery.
TOILET TRAINING
151
What is the nursing implication under the Autonomy vs Shame and Doubt?
(A) Provide opportunities for decision making (offering choices of clothes to wear or toys to play with).
(B) Praise for ability to make decisions rather than judging the correctness of any one decision.
152
At what age does the Initiative vs. Guilt stage occur?
