The newly licensed nurse finds many inconsistencies between what was taught in nursing school and what occurs in the practice setting. How is this situation likely to affect this nurse's socialization ... into nursing practice? Selected Answer: It may hinder socialization. Response Feedback: Generally, the more congruence there is between what was taught in nursing school and the way the new nurse is expected to practice, the more successful the socialization. Lack of congruence can impede socialization, not quicken it. It may also interfere with the quality of the nurse's practice. • Question 2 A newly licensed nurse was previously employed as a unit secretary on the same unit where he now works as a staff nurse. This role transition is causing the nurse to experience stress. What information about role stress and transition would be most helpful for this nurse to consider? Selected Answer: Response Feedback: Role stress can be decreased by receiving clear and consistent information about expectations of the new role. Role stress is made worse by role ambiguity, role conflict, role incongruity, role overload or underload, and by role over- or underqualification. Having clear and consistent information about expectations of the new role is helpful and combats role ambiguity. Taking on multiple roles can result in role ambiguity and overload. Nursing standards of care are universal and are not different in the "real world," even though the standards may not be upheld by overworked, overstressed nurses. Role stress is not limited to newly licensed nurses and can occur at any time during a nurse's career. • Question 3 Which option best describes discipline as it applies to nursing? Selected Answer: The discipline of nursing is nursing's distinct body of knowledge. Response Feedback: A discipline is a branch of knowledge, and human knowledge is divided into disciplines. Therefore, the discipline of nursing refers to that body of knowledge distinct to nursing. Although nursing is often autonomous, is governed by standards of practice, and has a rigorous code of ethics, those concepts are not the discipline of nursing. • Question 4 The newly licensed nurse has theoretical knowledge and technical skill abilities but has difficulty working within the constraints of the nursing unit.
