Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

According to The 2013 National Nursing Workforce Survey of Registered Nurses by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing and The Forum of State Nursing Workforce Centers, 8 of nurses hold a diploma, 29 of nurses hold an associate degree, 36 of nurses hold a baccalaureate degree, and 13.9 of nurses hold a master's or doctoral degree as their highest level of educational preparation.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

A discipline is a branch of knowledge, and human knowledge is divided into disciplines. Therefore, the discipline of nursing refers to that body of knowledge distinct to nursing. Although nursing is often autonomous, is governed by standards of practice, and has a rigorous code of ethics, those concepts are not the discipline of nursing.
