Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Recognition of the gap between research and practice led to formal attempts to bridge the gap. The best-known of several early RU projects is the Conduct and Utilization of Research in Nursing (CURN) Project, which was awarded to the Michigan Nurses' Association by the Division of Nursing in the 1970s. The Stetler Model of Research Utilization and Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services are evidence-based practice models, not projects. One keystone of the EBP movement is the Cochrane Collaboration, which was founded in the United Kingdom based on work by British epidemiologist Archie Cochrane. It is not a research utilization project.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale 1: A visual analog scale is used to collect data by having subjects identify their impressions of the phenomenon.
Rationale 2: The Q sort method of data collection has subjects sort statements into categories according to their attitudes about the statements.
Rationale 3: A projective technique presents some stimulus and has subjects describe what the stimulus represents.
Rationale 4: The Delphi technique is used to seek consensus on a topic from a group of experts, such as the identification of research priorities.
