Nursing QUESTION #9158
Question 1
In nursing education, Bloom's Taxonomy of educational objectives classifies learning into three domains. The psychomotor domain primarily deals with:
  • Recall of factual information
  • Emotional responses and values
  • Physical skills and motor activities✔️
  • Problem-solving and analysis
Correct Answer Explanation

Bloom's Taxonomy classifies educational objectives into three domains:

  1. Cognitive domain: Knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, evaluation
  2. Affective domain: Attitudes, values, emotional responses
  3. Psychomotor domain: Physical and motor skills — e.g., performing injections, wound dressing, CPR

In nursing education, the psychomotor domain is critical for clinical skill development. A Head Nurse supervising nursing students or staff must assess all three domains for comprehensive competency evaluation.
