A nurse is teaching a patient how to change their surgical dressing. The patient is able to perform a return demonstration.

Which learning domain has been demonstrated?

Cognitive

Affective

Effective

Psychomotor

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is D

Choice A rationale
The cognitive domain involves knowledge and the development of intellectual skills. This includes the recall or recognition of specific facts and concepts that serve in the development of intellectual abilities and skills.
Choice B rationale
The affective domain includes the manner in which we deal with things emotionally, such as feelings, values, appreciation, enthusiasms, motivations, and attitudes.
Choice C rationale
The term “effective” is not recognized as a learning domain. It may be a typographical error.
Choice D rationale
The psychomotor domain includes physical movement, coordination, and use of the motor- skill areas. Development of these skills requires practice and is measured in terms of speed, precision, distance, procedures, or techniques in execution. Thus, when a patient is able to perform a return demonstration, such as changing their surgical dressing, it is the psychomotor domain that has been demonstrated.

Correct Answer is B

Explanation

The nurse completed the incident report at 1600.

Step 1 is to understand the 24-hour clock format. In this format, the hours of the day run 0-23, midnight to midnight.

Step 2 is to convert the time the nurse administered the medication (0900) to the 12-hour clock format. This is 9 a.m.

Step 3 is to add seven hours to this time (the time that passed before the nurse realized a medication error had occurred). 9 a.m. + 7 hours = 4 p.m.

Step 4 is to convert this time back to the 24-hour clock format. 4 p.m. is 1600 in the 24-hour clock format.
