The most reliable ways to determine a patient's mastery of a psychomotor skill are to have them give a reciprocal demonstration of the process (C) and to demonstrate the process to another person while the nurse supervises (E). Verbal and written descriptions (A and B) can give an indication of understanding but may not necessarily indicate mastery. Asking questions (D) can be helpful but may not provide a complete assessment. Patient self-evaluation (F) may not always be accurate.
