Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Many of the specialty practice nursing organizations provide support for studies relevant to their specialty, including nurse practitioner groups. These organizations often provide guidance to budding new researchers who need assistance in beginning the process of planning and seeking funding for research. To determine the resources provided by a particular nursing organization, search their website or contact the organization by e-mail, letter, or phone. Three of these are the Association of Women's Health, Obstetric, and Neonatal Nurses; National Gerontological Nursing Association; and Emergency Nurses Association.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C, E
Sometimes a researcher will send a preproposal or query letter rather than a proposal to a funding institution. A preproposal is a short document of four to five pages plus appendices that explores the funding possibilities for a research project. The parts of the preproposal are logically ordered as follows: (1) letter of transmittal, (2) proposal for research, (3) personnel, (4) facilities, and (5) budget. The proposal provides a brief overview of the proposed project, including the research problem, purpose, methodology (brief description), and, most important, a statement of the significance of the work to knowledge in general and the funding institution in particular. By developing a preproposal, researchers are able to determine the agencies interested in funding their study and limit submission of their proposals to only institutions that indicate an interest.
