an Evidence-Based Practice Grove: Understanding Nursing Research, 8th
Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Which statement best describes evidence-based practice (EBP)?
a. A combination of best research evidence, clinical expertise, and the needs
and values of patients
b. A determination of the factors necessary to control patient responses to care
and delivery of care
c. The development of population care guidelines applicable to all patients
d. The utilization of quantitative and qualitative studies to enhance patient outcomes
ANS: A
Evidence-based practice evolves from the integration of the best research evidence with
clinical expertise and patient needs and values. Studies that attempt to find determinants
of patient outcomes are generally experimental or quasi-experimental. They may be used
to guide EBP but do not completely define it. EBP is a combination of guidelines and
specific patient needs and values. Quantitative and qualitative studies applied to the
evaluation of patient outcomes are part of EBP but do not completely define EBP.
DIF: Cognitive level: Remembering (Knowledge)
2. The nurse is collecting data about the sleep patterns of breastfed babies as part of a larger
research study. Which research method will the nurse use when collecting data for this
study? a. Control
b.
Description
c.
Explanation
d. Prediction
ANS: B
Description involves identifying and understanding the nature of nursing phenomena and
the relationships among these phenomena. Control can be described as the ability to write
a prescription to produce the desired results. Explanation clarifies the relationships among
phenomena and identifies why certain events occur. Through prediction, the probability of
a specific outcome can be estimated in a given situation.
DIF: Cognitive level: Understanding (Comprehension)
3. The nurse is participating in a study and is collecting data identifying the number of obese
adults whose parents were also obese or overweight. Which research method is being used
in
this study?
a. Control
b. Description
c. Explanation
d.Prediction
ANS: D
