approach 5th edition dunphy
chapter 1. primary care in the twenty-first century: a circle of caring
1. a nurse has conducted a literature review in an effort to identify the effect
of handwashing 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
a) the control group and the experimental group were more than 99%
similar.
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.
d) the clinical significance of the findings was less than 1:100.
correct answer>>b
feedback: the level of significance is the level at which the researcher
believes that the study results most likely represent a nonchance event. a level
of significance of <0.01 indicates that there is less than 1% probability that the
result is due to chance.
, 2. a nurse has read a qualitative research study in order to understand the
lived experience of parents who have a neonatal loss. which of the following
questions should the nurse prioritize when appraising the results of this study?
a) how well did the authors capture the personal experiences of these
parents?
b) how well did the authors control for confounding variables that may have
affected the findings?
c) did the authors use statistical measures that were appropriate to the
phenomenon in question?
d) were the instruments that the researchers used statistically valid and
reliable?
correct answer>>a
feedback: qualitative studies are judged on the basis of how well they
capture and convey the subjective experiences of individuals. statistical
measures and variables are not dimensions of a qualitative methodology.
3. a nurse has expressed skepticism to a colleague about the value of
nursing research, claiming that nursing research has little relevance to practice.
how can the nurses colleague best defend the importance of nursing research?
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.
