Answer to Question 1

B
The Nurse Licensure Compact is a project of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing and is an
agreement among states to allow nurses to be multistate licensed (without applying for a new license)
in those states that have agreed to this practice (no extra large fee involved).

Answer to Question 2

B
The two major challenges are (1) reviewing the rapidly growing body of scientific literature and (2)
evaluating and transforming the literature in order to be useful for clinical decision making. Balancing
the benefits and harm is a criterion for evaluating research. Recommending or not recommending the
research is also a criterion for the evaluation process. Reviewing and grading research according to the
AHRQ scale is a criterion for the evaluation process.
