MULTIPLE
CHOICES
1. Nurses holding a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree play a pivotal role in applying evidence-based

protocols in clinical practice. This implies that BSN nurses:

a. Offer practical insights when implementing protocols.

b. Contribute to the refinement of evidence-based protocols based on their clinical expertise.

c. Assist in the evaluation and adaptation of evidence-based guidelines.

d. Utilize their practice wisdom to guide the application of protocols in patient care settings.


BSN-educated nurses possess the necessary research knowledge and skills to critically assess studies and

contribute to the implementation of evidence-based practices in healthcare. Their input ensures that protocols

are effectively applied in real-world clinical scenarios, with ongoing evaluation to optimize patient outcomes.


2. A research study is underway to assess the impact of companion dogs on the orientation levels of elderly

individuals in a hospital setting. This study aims to:

a. Control for variables that may influence the outcome.

b. Provide a detailed description of the intervention and its effects.

c. Offer insights into the underlying reasons for the observed outcomes.
d. Make predictions about the potential benefits of introducing companion dogs to elderly patients in hospitals.


This research seeks to understand how the presence of companion dogs affects the orientation levels of elderly

patients, without focusing on the dogs' orientation levels. By controlling for variables and describing the
intervention and its effects, the study aims to predict the potential benefits of integrating companion dogs into

hospital care for elderly individuals.



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.

1. 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

2. A researcher who desires to determine the cause-and-effect relationship between requiring
that all children under the age of 8 will ride in special care harnesses and the subsequent rate
of children’s spinal cord injury will consequently utilize which form of nursing research?
a. Descriptive research

b. Outcomes research

c. Qualitative research

d. Quantitative research

Quantitative research, the most frequently used method, is a formal, objective, systematic

methodology to describe variables, test relationships, and examine cause-and-effect
interactions. Quantitative research includes experimental research, which is the method for
testing cause-and-effect relationships between and among specific variables. Qualitative
research methods are used for explaining meanings and describing experiences in context.
Descriptive research involves identifying and understanding the nature of phenomena and,
sometimes, the relationships among them. Outcomes research examines the end result of care
in huge populations, most often retrospectively, using a database.

3. Despite the presence of an intraventricular drain, the intracranial pressure of an ICU neuro
patient remains increased. The nurse recalibrates the machine, makes sure the monitor is on
the same level as the drain, checks all connections, and then notifies the physician, who comes
to the unit and inserts a new drain. What type of reasoning prompts the nurse to recalibrate,
ensure proper placement, and check connections?
a. Abstract reasoning

b. Concrete thinking

c. Logistic reasoning

d. Reality testing


ANS: C

Logistic reasoning is used to break a whole into parts that can be carefully examined.
Concrete thinking is oriented toward and limited by tangible things or by events that are
observed and experienced in reality. Abstract reasoning is oriented toward the development of
an idea without application to, or association with, a particular instance. Reality testing is used
to validate what is observed in the empirical world.

in the emergency department. The resultant policy emanates from
