Chapter 01: Discovering the World of Nursing Research
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Nurses with a bachelor’s degree in nursing can participate in the implementation of research
into practice. This means that the BSN nurse:
a. develops evidence-based guidelines.
b. designs research studies on which protocols may be based.
c. evaluates and revises evidence-based protocols.
d. reads and critically appraises existing studies.
ANS: D
Nurses with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree have knowledge of the research
process and skills in reading and critically appraising studies. They use the best research
evidence in practice with guidance. Nurses with a BSN also assist with problem identification
and data collection. Nurses with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) critically appraise and
synthesize findings from studies to revise or develop protocols, algorithms, or policies for use
in practice. Nurses with a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) develop, implement, and
evaluate evidence-based guidelines. Nurses with a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) assume a
major role in conducting research.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Analysis
2. A study is designed to test the idea of providing companion dogs to elders in a major hospital,
in order to determine the effect upon the elders’ level of orientation. This type of study can do
which of the following?
a. Control
b. Describe
c. Explain
d. Predict
ANS: A
Control is the ability to manipulate the situation to produce the desired outcome. Description
involves observing and documenting nursing phenomena, providing a snapshot of reality.
Explanation clarifies the relationships among concepts and variables with the goal of
understanding how they work with each other. Prediction involves estimating the probability
of a specific outcome in a given situation.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Application
3. A researcher wants to know whether children with autism who are hospitalized in a pediatric
ward will require more hours of nursing care than the average child, when the parents or
caregivers are not present. What type of research outcome does this provide?
a. Control
b. Description
c. Explanation
d. Prediction

DIF: Cognitive Level: Application
4. Despite the presence of an intraventricular drain, the intracranial pressure of a patient in
neurological intensive care remains increased. The nurse recalibrates the machine, makes sure
the monitor is on the same level as the drain, checks all connections, and then notifies the
physician, who comes to the unit and inserts a new drain. What type of reasoning or thinking
prompts the nurse to recalibrate, assure proper placement, and check connections?
a. Abstract thinking
b. Concrete thinking
c. Logical reasoning
d. Dialectical reasoning
ANS: C
Logical reasoning is used to dissect components of a situation or conclusion, examine each
carefully, and analyze relationships among the parts. Abstract thinking is oriented toward the
development of an idea without application to, or association with, a particular instance.
Concrete thinking is oriented toward and limited by tangible things or by events that are
observed and experienced in reality. Dialectical reasoning involves looking at situations in a
holistic way.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Application
5. A nurse with considerable clinical expertise develops a policy for managing agitated patients
in the Emergency Department. The resultant policy emanates from:
a. abstract thinking.
b. concrete thinking.
c. operational reasoning.
d. dialectical reasoning.
ANS: A
Abstract thinking is oriented toward the development of an idea without application to, or
association with, a particular instance. Concrete thinking is oriented toward and limited by
tangible things or by events that are observed and experienced in reality. Operational
reasoning is the identification of and discrimination among many alternatives and viewpoints.
Dialectical reasoning involves looking at situations in a holistic way.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Application
6. A nurse with considerable clinical expertise develops a policy for managing agitated patients
in the Emergency Department. The type of reasoning the nurse uses to do this is:
a. problematic reasoning.
b. operational reasoning.
c. collaborative reasoning.
d. inductive reasoning.
