A young client tells the nurse that she believes she is going to be well because of the stories in the Bible where all of the people were healed. This child is demonstrating which stage of spiritual development?
1. 0 to 3 years
2. 3 to 7 years
3. 7 to 12 years
4. Adolescence
2. 3 to 7 years
Rationale:
The child is demonstrating the spiritual development stage of a 3 to 7-year-old since the child is relating intuitively to ultimate conditions of existence through stories and images, and the fusion of facts and feelings. Within the 0 to 3-year-old stage, children are acquiring fundamental spiritual qualities of trust, mutuality, courage, hope, and love. Within the 7 to 12-year stage, children attempt to sort fantasy from fact by demanding proofs or demonstrations of reality. In adolescence, experience of the world extends beyond the family unit, and spiritual beliefs can aid understanding of extended environment.
