Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Just as the staff nurse is not responsible for medical consent, the staff nurse is not
responsible for research consent. If patients who have agreed to participate exhibit ambivalence
or uncertainty about participating, do not try to convince them to participate. Ask the person
from the research team who is managing consents to speak with concerned patients about the
study, even after a patient has signed the consent forms.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
A major role for staff nurses is to identify questions or problems for research.
Grant applications, methodological planning, and publication submission are normally carried
out by nurses who have advanced degrees in nursing.
