Act With Rules And Regulations That Define Scope Of Practice.
B Liability Is A Legal Concept Related To A Nurse’s Legal Scope Of Practice And Professional
Standards Of Practice. Research Does Not Change A Nurse’s Liability.
C Nursing Research Generates A Specialized Scientific Knowledge Base That Empowers The
Nursing Profession To Anticipate And Meet Constantly Shiftingchallenges Of Health Care Delivery
To Multiple Populations. It Provides A
Foundation For Evidence-Based Nursing Care And Quality Improvement Activities.
D Although Research Can Document Nursing Accountability, Each State’s Nurse Practice Act

Forwhich Of These Reasons?
a. To Identify Potential Subjects For Clinical Research Studies
b. To Assist As Accurate Data Collectors In Clinical Research Studies
c. To Teach Patients And Their Families About The Usefulness Of Consenting Toparticipate In
Research
d. To Be Able To Evaluate Nursing Research Reports For Relevance To Their Own
Clinicalpractice
Ans: D
Feedback
A Subject Identification Is Determined By The Nurse Researcher.
B Data Collectors Need To Understand Their Role In The Study; They Do Not Need To
Understand The Entire Research Process.
