NURS 5350 M2L3 exam with
verified solutions

Historically, nursing preparation was referred to as "training," and many nurses educated |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




through the 1970s still use this term to refer to their education. Why is this terminology
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




particularly problematic in light of the advances made in nursing science in the last 30 |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




years?

A) On-the-job apprenticeships are no longer as prevalent as they were up through the late
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




1970s and early 1980s. |||||| |||||| ||||||




B) It places emphasis on nurses' abilities to perform tasks rather than reason through and
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




understand the purpose of their actions. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




C) Most modern nurses pursue Master's level education beyond their practice-based
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Bachelor's education. ||||||




D) The last 30 years have seen nursing education move away from physician-taught courses
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




in hospitals to professor-taught courses at universities. - Correct answer ✔B
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




During the 1960s, why did nursing scholars heavily emphasize a focus on the theoretical
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




development of nursing as its own, independent discipline? |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




A) To support doctoral education for nurses that was discipline specific
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




B) To prove that the logical positivist approach was a poor fit for the discipline
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




C) To encourage and enhance the continued development of nursing science
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




D) To promote research by nurses in all fields, not merely nursing science - Correct answer
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




✔C



Which argument best supports the idea of nursing as a professional discipline rather than an
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




academic discipline?
|||||| ||||||

, A) "Nursing is an applied science. Its practice component places an emphasis on the delivery
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




of service by nurses rather than the development of academic knowledge."
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




B) "Nursing is a discipline with unique substance. It borrows very little from other disciplines
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




and, as a result, is beyond the realm of most academic programs in the sciences that
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




acknowledge idea sharing across disciplines." |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




C) "Nursing is a concept with a lengthy unofficial history. Individuals have been providing
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




nursing care to others since the Crusades, and this professional provision of services
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




predates formal education in the field." |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




D) "Nursing is a relative newcomer to advanced education. For many years, nurses were
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




educated or trained only at a Bachelor's level, and advanced practice therefore has its roots
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




in the profession itse - Correct answer ✔A
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Which statement most accurately encapsulates Thomas Kuhn's proposed philosophy of
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




science?

A) Science philosophy should address both the conceptual and empirical problems of
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




science and serve as merely a problem-solving activity. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




B) Science philosophy should focus on concept clarification and concept analysis based on
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




theory development and synthesis. |||||| |||||| ||||||




C) Science philosophy should resolve conceptual problems in science without being limited
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




to the development of theories.
|||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




D) Science philosophy should examine the process of science, rather than the product of
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




science, according to a disciplinary matrix known as a paradigm. - Correct answer ✔D
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




The consensus statement crafted at the Knowledge Consensus Conference in Boston in 1998
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




addressed the following areas except: |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




A) The nature of the human person
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




B) The role of nursing theory
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




C) The nature of the nurse as an individual
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




D) The links of each area of understanding to nursing practice - Correct answer ✔C
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||
