#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



washing on the incidence of nosocomial (hospital-acquired) infections in acute
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



care settings. An article presented findings at a level of significance of <0.01. This
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



indicates that
#Q #Q




A) The control group and the experimental group were more than 99% similar.
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q




B) The findings of the study have less than 1% chance of being attributable to chance.
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q




C) The effects of the intervention were nearly zero.
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q




D) The clinical significance of the findings was less than 1:100.
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q




Ans: B #Q




Feedback: The level of significance is the level at which the researcher believes that the
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



study results most likely represent a no chance event. A level of significance of <0.01
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



indicates that there is less than 1% probability that the result is due to chance.

#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q

#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



profession, rather than simply as a trade or a skill.
#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q

#Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q #Q



research to education programs, grant funding, or the public view of the profession.
