Nurse researchers work almost exclusively in universities and schools of nursing.
 
  A) True
  B) False

Question 2

A nurse manager has conducted a study to look at the relationship between the amount of time staff nurses on a unit spend in patient rooms and the number of times the patients on that unit use their call lights.
 
  The manager reports the results of the data analysis as r = -1.02. How should these results be interpreted? 1. There is a strong positive relationship between the variables.
  2. There is a strong negative relationship between the variables.
  3. There is no relationship between the variables.
  4. This is an improbable value and a mathematical error is possible.

Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale 1: A positive value indicates a positive correlation between the variables, and -1.02 falls outside the parameters of a correlation coefficient (1.0 and -1.0).
Rationale 2: A negative value does indicate a negative correlation between the variables, but -1.02 falls outside the parameters of a correlation coefficient (1.0 and -1.0).
Rationale 3: A relationship may exist, but this value lies outside the parameters of a correlation coefficient (1.0 and -1.0), so it is impossible to be certain.
Rationale 4: Correlation coefficients can only range between 1.0 and -1.0, so this is an improbable value. Perhaps a mathematical error was made.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
