Answer to Question 1

ANS: A

Feedback
A Scientific investigation promotes accountability, a hallmark of the nursing profession and a fundamental concept of the ANA's Code for Nurses.
B Standards of care are defined by ANA, as well as specialty nursing organizations. The Code for Nurses states that nurses should conform to standards, but standards per se are not part of the Code.
C Legal scope of practice is defined by each state's Nurse Practice Act and elaborated in its rules and regulations.
D The ANA Code applies to nursing practice in general, not advanced practice.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, E
Two national nursing organizations that provide small grants not linked to a specialty are the American Nurses' Foundation and Sigma Theta Tau, International. These grants are usually for less than 7,500 each year, are very competitive, and are awarded to new investigators with promising ideas. Receiving funding from these organizations is held in high regard.
