A client asks the nurse to please close the door when entering or exiting the room because the noise is more than the client is used to because he lives alone

The nurse identifies the reason for this client's response to sensory stimuli as being due to which factor?
1. Lifestyle
2. Developmental stage
3. Culture
4. Illness


Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: Lifestyle influences the quality and quantity of stimulation to which an individual is accustomed. A client who lives alone is exposed to fewer, less diverse stimuli.
Rationale 2: There is no information to support that the client's response to sensory stimuli is because of developmental stage.
Rationale 3: There is no information to support that the client's response to sensory stimuli is because of culture.
Rationale 4: There is no information to support that the client's response to sensory stimuli is because of illness.
