Chapter 2 – The Evolution of Nursing Science

1. Historically, nursing preparation was referred to as “training,” and many nurses educated
through the 1970s still use this term to refer to their education. Why is this terminology
particularly problematic in light of the advances made in nursing science in the last 30
years?

A. On-the-job apprenticeships are no longer as prevalent as they were up through the
late 1970s and early 1980s.
B. It places emphasis on nurses’ abilities to perform tasks rather than reason through and
understand the purpose of their actions.
C. Most modern nurses pursue Master’s level education beyond their practice-
based Bachelor’s education.
D. The last 30 years have seen nursing education move away from physician-taught courses
in hospitals to professor-taught courses at universities.

Ans: B

2. During the 1960s, why did nursing scholars heavily emphasize a focus on the
theoretical development of nursing as its own, independent discipline?

A. To support doctoral education for nurses that was discipline specific
B. To prove that the logical positivist approach was a poor fit for the discipline
C. To encourage and enhance the continued development of nursing science
D.
TESTBANKSELLER.COM
To promote research by nurses in all fields, not merely nursing

science Ans: C

3. Which argument best supports the idea of nursing as a professional discipline rather
than an academic discipline?

A. “Nursing is an applied science. Its practice component places an emphasis on the
delivery of service by nurses rather than the development of academic knowledge.”
B. “Nursing is a discipline with unique substance. It borrows very little from other
disciplines and, as a result, is beyond the realm of most academic programs in the
sciences that acknowledge idea sharing across disciplines.”
C. “Nursing is a concept with a lengthy unofficial history. Individuals have been providing
nursing care to others since the Crusades, and this professional provision of services
predates formal education in the field.”
D. “Nursing is a relative newcomer to advanced education. For many years, nurses were
educated or trained only at a Bachelor’s level, and advanced practice therefore has its roots
in the profession itself rather than in academia.”

Ans: A
