NUR 303 Ch 5 & 6 Questions With Complete Solutions
A literature review will... correct answers -add credence to the
importance of the topic proposed for investigation
-identify studies that can be replicated, instruments that have
been standardized and tested, or procedures that can be adapted
-reveal appropriate theoretical frameworks
-contribute to the body of knowledge or establish the lack of
published research on a subject
A literature search for evidence-based nursing practice should
meet the following criteria correct answers - be focused on a
clinical question
- be limited in its time frame so that the evidence is current
- be applicable directly to nursing practice
A research plan guiding implementation of the study describes
the following design elements: correct answers the sampling
strategy
the measurement strategy
the data collection plan
the data analysis plan
Altmetric correct answers The creation and study of new
metrics based on the Social Web for analyzing and informing
scholarship
Bibliometric correct answers the study of publication patterns
Boolean operators correct answers the words AND, OR, and
NOT, which are used to join or exclude search terms
, Cited reference search correct answers A search that finds
articles that are cited by another article
Confirmatory studies correct answers research in which a
relationship between variables has been posed and the study is
designed to examine this hypothesis
Correlation research correct answers Research designed to
quantify the strength and the direction of the relationship of two
variables in a single subject or the relationship between a single
variable in two samples
Criteria to establish a causal relationship exists correct answers
Temporality: the time sequence between independent and
dependent variables must support causation
Influence: the effect that the independent variable has on the
dependent variable can be detected statistically, and the
probability that the relationship was caused by chance is small
Specificity: rival explanations for the specific relationship
between independent and dependent variables have been
eliminated or controlled
Dependent variable correct answers an outcome of interest that
occurs after the introduction of an independent variable; the
"effect" of "cause and effect."
Descriptive studies correct answers Research designed to
describe in detail some process, event, or outcome. Such a
design is used when very little is known about the research
question.
