MULTIPLE CHOICE

 

  1. ANS:  C

Explanation: To answer the question, the test-taker must understand the definition of different levels of arousal and determine that responding to simple requests after being aroused by a loud voice is consistent with lethargic state.

 

PTS:   1                    REF:   From: Chapter 5                              TOP:   Content: Examination

 

  1. ANS:  A

Explanation: To answer the question, the test-taker must know the differences between sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation with the corresponding effects on the body systems. Pupil constriction is a commonly used sign of parasympathetic nervous system stimulation while the other three signs in the other three choices are caused by the sympathetic system.

  1. ANS:  B

Explanation: To answer the question, the test-taker must understand the differences in attention and how to test each one. Digit span is the only choice that tests selective attention.

  1. ANS:  A

Explanation: To answer the question, the test-taker must understand differences between long- and short-term memory and how to test for those memory capabilities. Asking about birth location tests long-term memory. The questions on breakfast and repeating words test short-term memory. The question on backward spelling tests thought processing.

  1. ANS:  A

Explanation: To answer the question, the test-taker must understand the difference between the types of hypertonicity and be familiar with the Modified Ashworth Scale. The presentation is consistent with spasticity, 1+ because it is observed at less than half the range.
