When caring for a diabetic client, the nurse notes that the client learns better when he practices the self-administration of the insulin injection by himself. In which of the following learning domains does this client's learning style fall?
A) Cognitive domain
B) Affective domain
C) Psychomotor domain
D) Interpersonal domain
C
Feedback:
Because the client learns better by practicing the self-administration of the insulin injection himself, his learning style falls in the psychomotor domain. The psychomotor domain is a style of processing that focuses on learning by doing. The client's learning style does not fall in the cognitive, affective, or interpersonal domain. The cognitive domain is a style of processing information by listening to or reading facts and descriptions. The affective domain is a style of processing that appeals to a person's feelings, beliefs, or values. The interpersonal domain is a style of processing that focuses on learning through social relationships.
