MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
1) Some nursing students have been given an assignment to develop a research question from a 1)
quantitative approach. Which of the following would be an example of a quantitative research
question in the clinical area?
A) Does expression of client spirituality affect recovery time?
B) What dressing selections work best for a wound dehiscence?
C) How do siblings react to a new baby of a second marriage after divorce of their parents?
D) What support do terminal cancer clients find least beneficial in hospice care?
Answer: B
Explanation: A) Quantitative research is often viewed as "hard" science. It progresses through
systematic, logical steps to collect information under controlled conditions. The
information is analyzed using statistical procedures. Qualitative research most
often explores the subjective experiences of human beings, which would be
exemplified in options A, C, and D.

Explanation: A) Phenomenology is research that investigates people's life experiences and how
they interpret those experiences. Using prior coping skills (life experiences) and
applying them to current situations in order to interpret the process of Alzheimer's
disease is an example of phenomenology. Grounded theory is research to
understand social structures and social processes. Ethnography is research that
provides a framework to focus on the culture of a group of people. Substantive
dimension is not a research tradition, rather a way to critique research reports.

4) A researcher is conducting a study involving only the single-parent families of a school system. 4)
The sample in this situation is which of the following?

This is an example of which of the following?
A) Reliability B) Validity C) Consistency D) Variability
Answer: A
Explanation: A) Reliability is the degree of consistency with which an instrument measures a
concept or variable. If it is reliable, repeated measurement of the same variable
should yield similar or nearly similar results. Validity is the degree to which an
instrument measures what it is supposed to measure. Consistency is a component
of reliability. Variability does not describe instrument measurement, but variances
in data.
