Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Tradition may undermine effective problem solving. There is growing concern that many nursing actions are based on tradition, custom, and unit culture rather than on sound evidence. This prevents the acceptance of new knowledge and increases bias and is unlikely to produce a precise range of answers.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
In the current EBP environment, every nurse is likely to engage in one or more activity along a continuum of research participation. At one end of the continuum are users (consumers) of nursing researchnurses who read research reports to keep up-to-date on findings that may affect their practice. EBP depends on well-informed nursing research consumers. At the other end of the continuum are the producers of nursing research: nurses who actively design and undertake studies.
