1. A nurse has conducted a literature review in an effort to identify the effect of hand

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

settings. An article presented findings at a level of significance of <0.01. This indicates

that T L




A) The control group and the experimental group were more than 99% similar.
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L L

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

C) The effects of the intervention were nearly zero.
T L T L T L T L T L T L L

D) The clinical significance of the findings was less than 1:100.
T L T L T L T L L
T T L T L T L T L




Ans: B TL




Feedback: The level of significance is the level at which the researcher believes that the study
T L L
T T L T L T L T L L
T T L L
T T L T L L
T T L T L L
T




results most likely represent a no chance event. A level of significance of <0.01 indicates that
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




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




2. A nurse has expressed skepticism to a colleague about the value of nursing research,
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




claiming that nursing research has little relevance to practice. How can the nurses colleague best
T L L
T T L T L T L T L L
T T L L
T T L L
T T L T L T L T L




defend the importance of nursing research?
T L T L T L T L T L T L




A) The existence of nursing research means that nurses are now able to access federal grant

money, something that didnt use to be the case.
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L

,B) Nursing research has allowed the development of masters and doctoral programs and has
L
T T L T L T L T L T L L
T L
T T L T L T L T L




greatly increased the credibility of the profession.
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




C) The growth of nursing research has caused nursing to be viewed as a true profession,
L
T T L T L L
T T L T L T L T L L
T L
T T L T L T L L
T




rather than simply as a trade or a skill.
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




D) The application of nursing research has the potential to improve nursing practice and
L
T T L T L L

T




patient outcomes.

Ans: D L
T




Feedback: The greatest value of nursing research lies in the potential to improve practice and,
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




ultimately, to improve patient outcomes. This supersedes the contributions of nursing research to
T L T L L
T L

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

3. A nurse has read a qualitative research study in order to understand the lived experience
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




of parents who have a neonatal loss. Which of the following questions should the nurse prioritize

when appraising the results of this study?

findings?

question?

D) Were the instruments that the researchers used statistically valid and reliable?

Feedback: Qualitative studies are judged on the basis of how well they capture and convey the
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




subjective experiences of individuals. Statistical measures and variables are not dimensions of a

T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




when they experience early challenges and wonders what could be done to encourage more
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




women to continue breast-feeding. What role is Tracy most likely to play in a research project
T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L T L




that tests an intervention aimed at promoting breast-feeding?

applications, methodological planning, and publication submission are normally carried out by

nurses who have advanced degrees in nursing.

by a research assistant. Later, the patient admitted to his nurse that he did not understand the
