Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Multicausality is the recognition that a number of interrelating variables can be involved in causing a particular effect. Very few phenomena in nursing can be clearly pinned down to a single cause and a single effect.
Many factors enter into nursing phenomena, such as psychological, social, emotional, as well as physical. Multicausality is the recognition that a number of interrelating variables can be involved in causing a particular effect. Very few phenomena in nursing can be clearly pinned down to a single cause and a single effect.
Phenomena in nursing are usually quite complex. Multicausality is the recognition that a number of interrelating variables can be involved in causing a particular effect. Very few phenomena in nursing can be clearly pinned down to a single cause and a single effect.
Most phenomena are not unique, but observed in many situations. Multicausality is the recognition that a number of interrelating variables can be involved in causing a particular effect. Very few phenomena in nursing can be clearly pinned down to a single cause and a single effect.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Experimental or quasi-experimental designs are commonly used to examine causality.
Descriptive research is conducted to provide an initial exploration of the topic of interest. Experimental or quasi-experimental designs are commonly used to examine causality.
The purpose of phenomenological research is to describe experiences as they are lived. Experimental or quasi-experimental designs are commonly used to examine causality.
These are designs used to examine the sequence and patterns of change, growth, or trends across time. Experimental or quasi-experimental designs are commonly used to examine causality.
