Answer to Question 1

A
A potential positive outcome for the organization that integrates evidence-based practice would
include improved recruitment of nurses. Reduced mortality and morbidity rates are benefits for the
patients. Increased nurse's salaries would not necessarily be a benefit for the organization. Higher
turnover of nurses and reduced patient satisfaction are more common in organizations that do not
integrate evidence-based practice.

Answer to Question 2

D
The independent variable would be the number of hospital days and the dependent variable would be
the participant's score on the satisfaction survey. Female and oncology patient are considered
demographic variables.
