ich statement? zx
1. Research priorities for nursing informatics include the development of a standard nursingla
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx xz
nguage and the development of databases for clinical information.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
2. A formal educational program at the master's level must be completed before a nurse iseli
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx xz
gible to sit for the credentialing examination.

anizations within the United States. zx zx zx zx
Correct Answer: 1 zx zx
Rationale 1: The development of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice. Althoug
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
h degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required for credentialing is typically at the
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx z
bachelor's level and includes experience in the field. Current demands for safer,cost-
x zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx xz
effective, quality care require evidence of the best practices supported by research.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
Rationale 2: Such a formal educational program does not necessarily mean a specialty area ofpra
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx xz
ctice. Although degrees at the master's level are available, the degree required for credentialing is
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx z
typically at the bachelor's level and includes experience in the field. The development of research
x zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
Rationale 3: Your chosen response refers to the entire discipline of nursing. The specialty of nursi
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
ng informatics integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science to manage a
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
nd communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom into nursing practice. Thedevelopme
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx xz
nt of research priorities is a key point in a specialty practice.
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
Rationale 4: There are many work groups in the United States related to informatics that focus on t
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx
he specialty of informatics practice. One example is the Nursing Informatics Special InterestGroup
zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx zx xz zx
of the International Medical Informatics Association. The development of research priorities is a k
