Multiple Choice
1. Nurses With A Bachelor’s Degree In Nursing Can Participate In The Implementation Of
Evidence- Based Protocols In 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. Contributes Practice Wisdom When Applying Protocols In Patient Settings
e. Mentors Phd Researchers In The Clinical Setting During Protocol Development
Ans: D
Nurses With A Bsn Degree Have Knowledge Of The Research Process And Skills In Reading
And Critically Appraising Studies. They Assist With The Implementation Of Evidence-Based
Guidelines, Protocols, Algorithms, And Policies In Practice. This Implies That Nurses
Provide Their Point Of View, From The Clinician’s Vantage, When New Protocols Are
Being Put Into Practice, And Continue To Provide Feedback, Regarding The Positive And
Negative Aspects Of Those Protocols.
Dif: Cognitive Level: Analysis Ref: Page 4
2. Research 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.
(The Dogs’ Level Of Orientation Will Not Be A Focus Of The Research.) 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 Identifying And Understanding The Nature Of Nursing Phenomena And,
Sometimes, The Relationships Among Them. Explanation Clarifies The Relationships Among
Phenomena And Identifies The Reasons Why Certain Events Occur. The Ability To Estimate
The Probability Of A Specific Outcome In A Given Situation In Nursing Practice Is Known As
Prediction. The Researcher’s Focus Is On Predicting What Is Likely.
Dif: Cognitive Level: Application Ref: Page 13
3. A Researcher Wants To Find Out Whether Children With Autism Who Are Hospitalized On
A Pediatric Ward Will Require More Hours Of Nursing Care Than Average Children When
The Parents Or Caregivers Are Not Present. What Type Of Research Outcome Does This
Provide?
a. Control
b. Description
c. Explantation
d. Prediction
