Personality is defined by the DSM-IV-TR as “enduring patterns of perceiving, relating to, and thinking about the environment and oneself that are exhibited in a wide range of social and personal contexts.”
Life-cycle developmentalists believe that people continue to develop and change throughout life, thereby suggesting the possibility for renewal
and growth in adults.

Mental HealthDefined as “The successful adaptation to
stressors from the internal or external environment, evidenced by thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are age-
appropriate and congruent with local and cultural
norms.” Stages are identified by age. However,
personality is influenced by temperament (inborn personality characteristics) and the environment.
It is possible for behaviors from an unsuccessfully completed stage to be modified and corrected in a later stage.
Mental IllnessDefined as “Maladaptive responses to stressors
from the internal or external environment, evidenced by thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are incongruent with the local and cultural norms and interfere with the individual’s social, occupational, or physical functioning.”
Horwitz describes cultural influences that affect how individuals view mental illness. These include Incomprehensibility – the inability of the general population to understand the motivation behind the behavior. Cultural relativity – the “normality” of behavior is
determined by the culture.
Psychological Adaptation to Stress
Anxiety and grief have been described as two major, primary psychological response patterns to stress.
A variety of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are associated with each of these response patterns.
Adaptation is determined by the extent to which the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interfere with an individual’s functioning.
Anxiety
A diffuse apprehension that is vague in nature and is associated with feelings of uncertainty and helplessness.
Extremely common in our society. Mild anxiety is adaptive and can provide
motivation for survival.
Peplau’s four levels of anxietyMild-
Moderate –
Severe –
Panic –
Behavioral Adaptation Responses to Anxiety
At the mild level, individuals employ various coping mechanisms to deal with stress. A few of these include eating, drinking, sleeping, physical exercise, smoking, crying, laughing, and talking to persons with whom they feel comfortable.
Anxiety at the moderate to severe level that remains unresolved over an extended period of time can
contribute to a number of physiological disorders – for example, migraine headaches, IBS, and cardiac arrhythmias.
Extended periods of repressed severe anxiety can result in psychoneurotic patterns of behaving – for example, anxiety disorders and somatoform disorders.
Small Group DiscussionDiscuss experiences you have had in clinical
were a patient was very anxious and how this effected you in providing care or educating the patient.
How did you deal with the patient.
GriefThe subjective state of emotional, physical, and
social responses to the loss of a valued entity; the loss may be real or perceived.

PsychobiologyThe 101st Congress of the U.S. designated
the 1990s as the “Decade of the Brain,” with the challenge for studying the biological basis of behavior.
In keeping with the neuroscientific revolution, greater emphasis is placed on the study of the organic basis for psychiatric illness.

Implications for NursingEmphasis in psychiatric nursing is on a
smooth transition from a psychosocial approach to a biopsychosocial focus
Psychiatric nurses must have a specialized knowledge about Neuroanatomy and neurophysiology Neuronal processes Neuroendocrinology Circadian rhythms Genetic influences Psychoimmunology Psychopharmacology Diagnostic technology
Neurotransmitters play an important role in human emotions and behavior and are the target for the mechanism of action in many psychotropic medications.Major categories of neurotransmitters
Circadian rhythmsFollow a near-24-hour cycle in humans and may
influence a variety of regulatory functions, including the
sleep-wake cycle, body temperature regulation, patterns of activity such as eating and drinking, and hormone secretion.
Some mood disorders have been linked to increased secretion of melatonin during darkness hours.
Symptoms that occur in the premenstrual cycle have been linked to disruptions in biological rhythms.
Sleep-wake cycle is one of the most common biological rhythms that demonstrates circadian influence.

Ethical and Legal Issues in Psychiatric/Mental
Health Nursing
DefinitionsEthics -Bioethics -Values – Moral behavior – Values clarification –
Ethical ConsiderationsTheoretical PerspectivesUtilitarianism – an ethical theory that promotes
actions based on the end results that produce the most good (happiness) for the most people
Kantianism – suggests that decisions and actions are bound by a sense of duty
Christian ethics - do unto others as you would have them do unto
you; alternatively, do not do unto others what you would not have them do unto you.
Natural law theories – do good and avoid evil. Evil acts are never condoned, even if they are intended to advance the noblest of ends.
Ethical egoism – decisions are based on what is best for the
individual making the decision.
Ethical Dilemmas Ethical dilemmas occur when moral appeals
can be made for taking either of two opposing courses of action.
Taking no action is considered an action taken.
Group DiscussionHave you had any ethical dilemmas?How did you deal with them?
Avoiding Liability Respond to the client Educate the client Comply with the standard of care Supervise care Adhere to the nursing process Document carefully Follow up and evaluate Maintain a good interpersonal
relationship with client and family
Ethical PrinciplesAutonomy – This principle emphasizes the status
of persons as autonomous moral agents whose rights to determine their destinies should always be respected.
Beneficence – This refers to one’s duty to benefit or promote the good of others.
Nonmaleficence – abstaining from negative acts toward another; includes acting carefully to avoid harm
Justice – principle based on the notion of a hypothetical social contract between free, equal, and rational persons. The concept of justice reflects a duty to treat all individuals
equally and fairly.Veracity – principle that refers to one’s duty to be truthful
always.

Legal Considerations Nurse Practice Act defines the legal parameters of
professional and practical nursing. Types of Laws
Statutory law Common law
Civil Law – protects the private and property rights of individuals and businesses
Tort Contracts
Criminal law – provides protection from conduct deemed injurious to the public welfare
Confidentiality and right to privacy Doctrine of privileged communication
Informed consent Restraints and seclusion
False imprisonment Commitment issues
Voluntary admissions Involuntary commitment Emergency commitment The mentally ill person in need of treatment Involuntary outpatient commitment The gravely disabled client
Malpractice and negligence Types of lawsuits that occur in psychiatric
nursing Breach of confidentiality Defamation of character
Libel Slander
Assault and battery False imprisonment Invasion of privacy
QuestionsTrue or False- A client who is admitted
involuntarily to an acute care mental health facility automatically loses his right to informed consent for medical procedures or treatments.
True or False- An example of the principle of justice is allowing a hospitalized patient to refuse to attend a scheduled counseling session with her clear understanding that she must accept the consequences for not attending.
True or False- A nurse is committing battery against a patient by forcefully holding the patient and insisting that he swallow a pill. The nurse tells the patient that he will be punished if he does not do it.
