available studies and synthesizes credible findings.
science -Answer The body of nursing knowledge is based on _________, and includes
both theory and research.
Research -Answer "Search again" or "examine carefully"
research The diligent and systematic inquiry or investigation aimed at generating new
knowledge which in return validates the existing knowledge and refines knowledge
through new research findings.
nursing research Answer *Uniquely addresses questions relevant to the largest
healthcare profession* Defined as the scientific process that validates and refines
existing knowledge and generates new knowledge that directly and indirectly influences
the delivery of evidence-based nursing
nursing - The protection, promotion, and optimization of health and abilities, prevention
of illness and injury, alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and treatment of
human response, and advocacy in the care of individuals, families, communities, and

applied research - Nursing research intended to create knowledge that can be used
directly in practice.
Basic/bench research - Answer not immediately applicable to practice- needed to build
and strengthen the scientific foundation of practice
, concrete - Answer a descriptor of thinking that is oriented toward and limited by
tangible things or by events that we experience objectively through our senses.
(immediated events limited by time and space)
Abstract- Respond to an idea directed toward the evolution of an idea without

logical reasoning- process used to dissect components of a situation or conclusion,
examine each carefully, and analyze relationships among the parts.
inductive reasoning-a form of reasoning that proceeds from the specific to the general,
so that a finite number of observed instances are believed to be generalized into a
general statement that could apply to a much larger set of observations
deductive reasoning-a form of reasoning that proceeds from the general to the specific,
or from a general premise to a particular situation or conclusion.
premise-a statement that predicts characteristics of individual instances.
Problem-solving reasoning - Solution Includes the identification of a problem in the
