Research questions are the specific queries researchers want to answer in addressing the research problem. The problem statement articulates the nature, context, and significance of a problem to be studied. A hypothesis states predicted relationships between two or more variablesthat is, the anticipated association between independent and dependent variables.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: It is more likely that quality of care will decrease, resulting in potential liability and development of a tarnished reputation.
Rationale 2: There is a point where even the most qualified and caring nurses can no longer provide high quality care to an overload of patients.
Rationale 3: The hospital may enjoy a temporary short-term rise in profits. However, this scenario is likely to result in a decrease in quality of care and a subsequent increase in legal liability.
Rationale 4: Overworked nurses do not result in a reputation for efficient and precise care.
