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 sett ing 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 pol icies 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 focu s 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 amon g 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.

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 16 4.

Descriptive research b. Outcomes research c. Qualitative research d. Quantitative research ANS: D 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 caus e-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. DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: Page 3 5. Despite the presence of an intraventricular drain, t he 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 n ew drain. What type of reasoning prompts the nurse to recalibrate, ensure proper placement, and check connections? a. Abstract reasoning b. Concrete thinking Test Bank Complete for Burns and Grove’s the Practice of Nursing Research 9th Edition Gray 4 c. Logistic reasoning d.

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. DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: Page 6 6. A nurse with considerable clinical expert ise develops a policy for managing agitated patients in the emergency department. The resultant policy emanates from a. Abstract reasoning b.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: Page 7 7. A nurse with considerable clinical expertise develops a policy for managing agitated patients in the emergency department. The type of reasoning the nurse uses to do this is _____ reasoning. a. Problematic b. Operational c. Logistic d. Inductive ANS: D Inductive reasoning involves reasoning that moves from the specific to the general, whereby particular instances are observed and then combined into a larger whole or general statement. Problematic reasoning involves (1) identifying a problem and factors i nfluencing it, (2) selecting solutions to the problem, and (3) resolving the problem. Operational reasoning involves the identification of and discrimination among many alternatives and viewpoints. Logistic reasoning is used to break the whole into parts t hat can be carefully examined, as the relationships among the parts can also be.
