NRNP 6675 MIDTERM EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
GUARANTEE A+
✔✔The process of integrating the best research evidence with clinical expertise and
client needs and values is known as: - ✔✔Identifying the patient, populating and
problem is the first step in implementing an evidence-based practice change. Identifying
stakeholders, obtaining institutional review board approval and reviewing the literature
are subsequent steps.
✔✔All of the following are methods of dissemination of findings: - ✔✔Presenting at
conferences, publishing in peer reviewed journals, poster presentations. (oral defense
to your committee is a peer review)
✔✔what concept is defined by a sample that is a representative of the population, and
where the results can generalized? - ✔✔External validity relates to the generalizing of
findings beyond the study to the population. Internal validity is the degree of the
truthfulness about inferences regarding casual relationships. Prevalence is a measure
of all individuals affected at a particular time. Incidences is a measure of the number of
new occurrences during a particular period of time.
✔✔what concept is defined by an independent variable causing a change in the
dependent variable - ✔✔internal variable relates to the genializing of findings beyond
the study to the population.
✔✔What method of analysis descibes the basic features of the data and summarizes
and organizes observations? - ✔✔Descriptive statistics define, summarize and organize
data. Inferential statistics use various methods of analysis to deduce properties of
probability and distribution that may be reflective of the population. Regression analysis
is a statistical method that allows one to examine the relationship between two more
variables. ANOVA is a collection of statistical models and their associated estimation to
analyze differences among group means in a sample.
✔✔What method of analysis describes the basic features of the data and summarizes
and organizes observations? - ✔✔inferential statistics use various methods of analysis
to deduce properties of probability and destruction that may be reflective of the
population.
✔✔which statistical test differentiats among three or more groups? - ✔✔ANOVA is a
collection of statistical models and their associated estimation to analyze differences
among group means in a sample.
✔✔Which statistical test identifies if the means of two groups are statistically different
from each other? - ✔✔A t-test of inferential statistic used to determine if there is a
significant difference in means between two groups assuming normal distribution.
, ✔✔Which statistical test identifies a relationship between two variables? - ✔✔Pearson's
r correlations
✔✔The level of significance describing the probablity of a particular result occurrring by
chance aloneis represented by which of the following? - ✔✔The p value describes the
level of significance describes the probablitly of a particular result occurring by change
alone.
✔✔All of the following are governed by the institutional review board: - ✔✔Ensuring
risks to participants are minimized, ensuring equitable selection, evaluating risks and
benefits, ensuring reporting of adverse events. (not regulating funding for study)
✔✔All of the patients have the right to all of the following: - ✔✔Confidential care, Care
in the least restrictive manner, the ability to consent and withdraw consent at any time.
(not have the right to be treated to a qualified provider who may not be a physician)
✔✔The PMHNP is working with an insurance organization to provide oversight and
authorization of series and benefits to patients. Which role of the PMHNP best
describes this activity? - ✔✔
✔✔ which of the following is not a core competency of APRN'S? - ✔✔Delegated
Practice is not a core competency of the APRN. The nurse practitioner may delegate
individual tasks but not the practice. The APRN must demonstrate competency in
technology and information literacy health delivery systems ethical principles and
decision-making.
✔✔Which of the following is characteristic of the leadership competency for APRN's? -
✔✔Participating in a community focused program that promotes mental health
exemplifies a leadership competency. Evaluating the appropriate use of seclusion and
restraints, developing an age-appropriate treatment plan, and modifying the treatment
plan based on clients' needs are clinical competencies.
✔✔All of the following are characteristics of the independent practice competency
except: - ✔✔Taking opportunities to influence health policy and reduce stigma of mental
health services exemplifies health policy competency. Considering differential
diagnoses, conducting psychotherapy and implementing plans to minimize comorbidity
are examples of practicing with full practice authority at the top of the professional
license.
✔✔A state's Nurse Practice Act specifies all of the following except: - ✔✔The state
Nurse Practice Act does not provide oversight of services and benefits provided to the
patient. It does define who may use the title and the work of the nurse practitioner as
well as restrict the practice of the professional.
