Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
A cross-sectional study design would best fit with this study objective. Cross-sectional designs involve the collection of data at one time period, whereas longitudinal designs involve data collection at two or more times over an extended period. Cross-sectional designs are economical and easy to manage, and there is no need for inferring changes over time in this case. In nursing, most longitudinal studies are follow-up studies of clinical populations. Longitudinal studies are best for understanding trends over time.

Answer to Question 2

B
