Matrix Multiple Response Item
Matrix Multiple Response Item
The Matrix Multiple Response Item is similar for the Matrix Multiple Choice Item; however, instead of selecting only one response per row, you may select more than one option. Let’s look at an example. Â
The nurse is caring for a 45-year-old female who is admittted to the emergency department with report of steady, rated 7 out 10, right lower quadrant abdominal pain, fever, nausea, vomiting, and positive Rovsing’s and Mcburney’s sign.
For each finding below, click if the finding is consistent with acute appendicitis and/or acute cholecystitis. Each finding may support both conditions. Simple, just click on the rectangle.Â
Rationale: Those are the symptoms of acute appendicitis versus acute cholecystitis. This is why, to study for the NCLEX, you need to also study content. You need to know the facts to think critically. I use a lot of short questions in my review to enhace your knowledge of commonly tested topics on the NCLEX.
