Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Facility policies and procedures can be used as evidence of specific nursing practice in the clinical setting if the policies are based on high-quality evidence. Clinical practice guidelines are based on systematic reviews, which provide the highest level of evidence. Policies based on quantitative research, opinions, and experience should not be used because they are not founded on evidence of the highest quality.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Quantitative questions ask about the relationship between or among defined, measurable phenomena and include statistical analysis of information that is collected to answer a question. Qualitative questions focus on the meanings and interpretations of human phenomena or experiences of people, and usually analyze the content of what a person says during an interview or what a researcher observes.
