Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 5

The literature review identifies other studies related to the topic. It may provide an answer to the problem, eliminate the need for further research, or identify gaps in current research. It may change the focus of the research and establishes the body of remembering related to the research problem. Literature review does not prevent the researcher from being charged with plagiarism.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

Letters written to legislators should be thoughtful and informed, but concise. For the greatest impact, these letters should be written individually instead of using form letters. Legislators should be addressed by title and surname, not first name. If the nurse wishes to visit the legislator in person, an appointment should be made. Drop-in visits are not appropriate.
