1. Which of the following groups would be best served by the development of a scientific
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


base for nursing practice?
f f f f


A) Nursing administrators f


B) Practicing nurses f


C) Nurses' clients f


D) Health care policymakers f f




Ans: C f


Feedback
f


:
Nursing research is systematic inquiry designed to develop trustworthy evidence about
f f f f f f f f f f


issues of importance to nurses and their clients. Nurse leaders recognize the need to base
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


specific nursing decisions on evidence indicating that the decisions are clinically
f f f f f f f f f f f


appropriate, cost-effective, and result in positive client outcomes. Although all of the
f f f f f f f f f f f f


people listed would benefit from the development of a scientific base for nursing practice,
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


ultimately it is the clients themselves who would most benefit, as they would then receive
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


the most appropriate and most effective care.
f f f f f f f




2. An especially important goal for the nursing profession is to do which of the following?
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


A) Conduct research to better understand the context of nursing practice f f f f f f f f f


B) Establish a solid base of evidence for practice through disciplined research f f f f f f f f f f


C) Document the role nursing serves in society f f f f f f


D) Establish research priorities f f




Ans: B f


Feedback
f


:
Nurses are increasingly expected to understand and undertake research and to base their
f f f f f f f f f f f f


practice on evidence from research. Evidence-based practice is the use of the best
f f f f f f f f f f f f f


evidence in making patient care decisions and typically comes from research conducted
f f f f f f f f f f f f


by nurses and other health-care professionals. All of the other answers are possible goals
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


for the nursing profession, but none is as important as establishing evidence for practice.

3. Which of the following is a fundamental belief of those who hold to the constructivist
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


paradigm?
f


A) A fixed reality exists in nature for humans to understand
f f f f f f f f f


B) The nature of reality has changed over time f f f f f f f


C) Reality is multiply constructed and multiply interpreted by humans f f f f f f f f


D) Reality cannot be studied empirically f f f f




Ans: C f


Feedback
f


:
In the constructivist paradigm, it is assumed that reality is not a fixed entity but is rathera
f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f


construction of human minds, and thus “truth” is a composite of multiple constructionsof
