ANS: B
A genogram is a diagram of at least three generations that illustrates the present family structures and compares past generations with the present ones. To determine the prevalence of this inherited disorder in the family, the nurse would use a symbol to denote each family member with this disease. An ecomap displays the outside systems with which the family interacts. A problem list helps family members identify difficulties or negative characteristics. A quantitative tool assesses the frequency of a behavior or problem. A genogram has a quantitative influence, as it documents how many people in the family have the characteristic being studied, but a genogram is more specific.
