Answer to Question 1

ANS: C

Feedback
A The title states that the lived experiences of nurse practitioners were examined, indicating a qualitative study with findings that could become part of a framework for nurse practitioners to use and for other researchers to study.
B The title indicates that the experience regarding mammography screening decisions of a specific group (rural, low-income women) was studied to identify themes and develop a model, the transformative decision-making process.
C The title describes a quantitative study regarding the effect on cancer pain management (dependent variable) of two approacheseducation al coaching versus standard care (independent variables). Thus the theoretical framework for the study has to do with motivational-interviewing-based coaching.
D The title indicates that the lived experience of a specific group (older adults) in a specific context (intensive care unit) was studied in regard to their feeling safe. This is a qualitative study to identify themes that form a model for future studies of the phenomenon.

Feedback
A Pender's health promotion model is not a grand nursing theory or all-inclusive model to describe nursing as a whole.
