1. Translational research/science will do which of the following?
(Select all that apply.)
a.
Result in biomedical research becoming less flexible in response
to the needs of society
b.
Limit interdisciplinary research because this does not enhance
patient care
c.
Take laboratory findings for development for use with patients
at the bedside
d.
Use clinical research findings to ask new questions for research
in the laboratory
e.
Discover practical applications for scientific theories and laws.
Correct Answers ANS: C, D. Take laboratory findings for
development for use with patients at the bedside, Use clinical
research findings to ask new questions for research in the
laboratory.
Translational research serves as the conduit between the bench
and the bedside.
,Incorrect
Translational research will result in more flexibility in taking
biomedical research findings to practical applications.
Interdisciplinary research is expected to increase as multiple
disciplines involved in clinical concerns can use the findings of
the bench scientists. Discovering practical applications for
scientific knowledge is applied science.
1. Who is credited with developing the theory on systems?
a. Rogers

10. Which research design would be used to determine the
relationship between self-concept, physical fitness, and health
habits in school-aged children?
, a.
Experimental design
b.
Nonexperimental design
c.
Applied research design
d.
Pretest and posttest design Correct Answers ANS: B.
Nonexperimental design.
Nonexperimental designs will allow the researcher to look for
relationships among the variables and are described as
descriptive or exploratory.
Experimental designs look for differences between groups on
certain variables.
Designs used in applied research take various forms, including
experimental and nonexperimental.
An experimental design addresses differences, not relationships.
