Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Several models of EBP, such as the Iowa Model, have distinguished two types of stimulus (triggers) for an EBP endeavor(1) problem-focused triggersthe identification of a clinical practice problem in need of solution, or (2) knowledge-focused triggersreadings in the research literature. A report in a medical journal regarding a potential flu epidemic is an example of a reading in a research literature, and thus would be a knowledge-focused trigger. The other answers are examples of problem-focused triggers.

Rationale 3: This observer becomes involved with the subjects who are fully aware of the observation.
