Processes
LoBiondo-Wood & Haber: Nursing Research: Methods and Critical Appraisal for
Evidence-Based Practice, 10TH EDITION
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Nursing research is significant to the profession of nursing because it promotes:
a. more specifically defined nursing practice responsibilities.
b. decreased liability within the practice of nursing.
c. generation of a specialized body of nursing knowledge for use in nursing practice.
d. expansion of the scope of nursing practice into other disciplines.
ANS: C
Feedback
A Research aids in documenting accountability of nurses, but professional guidelines
already exist regarding responsibility. Each state has a Nurse Practice Act with
rules and regulations that define scope of practice.
B Liability is a legal concept related to a nurse’s legal scope of practice and
professional standards of practice. Research does not change a nurse’s liability.
C Nursing research generates a specialized scientific knowledge base that empowers
the nursing profession to anticipate and meet constantly shifting challenges of
health care delivery to multiple populations. It provides a foundation for
evidence-based nursing care and quality improvement activities.
D Although research can doN

2. An aspect of the scientific investigation of nursing practice that is also a fundamental concept
of American Nurses Association (ANA)’s Code for Nurses is:
a. professional accountability.
b. standards of care.
c. legal scope of practice.
d. advanced practice nursing activities.
ANS: A
Feedback
A Scientific investigation promotes accountability, a hallmark of the nursing
profession and a fundamental concept of the ANA’s Code for Nurses.
B Standards of care are defined by ANA, as well as specialty nursing organizations.
The Code for Nurses states that nurses should conform to standards, but standards
per se are not part of the Code.
C Legal scope of practice is defined by each state’s Nurse Practice Act and
elaborated in its rules and regulations.
D The ANA Code applies to nursing practice in general, not advanced practice.

implementing protocols, whereas expert consultation is generally reserved for
nurses prepared at the master’s or higher-degree level (advanced education).

ANS: C
Feedback
A Having a role in nursing research or implementing findings is not limited to nurses
with baccalaureate or higher levels of education.
B Nurses with master’s or higher levels of education provide leadership to supervise
how research findings are applied in the clinical area. However, all levels of
nurses can apply research findings to practice.
C To use research in evidence-based practice, the nurse must not necessarily be able
to conduct research but should be able to understand and appraise the steps of the
research process to read the research literature critically and use it to inform
clinical decisions.
D Data analysis is usually conducted by nurses with master’s or higher levels of
education. However, interpretation of research findings can be performed by any
nurse who can critically analyze the research performed.
