Answer to Question 1

D
A number of factors have contributed to the ongoing discussion of what constitutes the minimum
appropriate requirements for the degree of registered nurse. In 1965 American Nurses Association
(ANA) House of Delegates (HOD) moved to work toward a baccalaureate as the foundation for
professional nursing practice, and in 1985 ANA HOD agreed to urge state nursing associations to
establish the BS degree as the minimum for RNs. However, today the BS degree is still not a
mandatory requirement (only recommended) for the degree of registered nurse, and two-year
associated degree schools and three-year diploma schools provide viable RN degrees.

Answer to Question 2

B
Surveys or questionnaires are used when individuals might be polled with a Likert scale rating of how
the participants rated a question on a scale of 1 to 5, 1 being no experience and 5 being proficient.
