Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Employing a series of presentation and publications in many venues is the only one that implies a widespread dissemination of the research findings.
An open forum for exchange of ideas is excellent, but is not sufficient in the eyes of outcomes researchers. Outcomes researchers consider wide dissemination of the results to providers and consumers to promote change in health care practices.
Presenting the findings, even at a prestigious conference, is not sufficient in the eyes of outcomes researchers. Outcomes researchers consider wide dissemination of the results to providers and consumers to promote change in health care practices.
Publishing in a scholarly journal is not sufficient in the eyes of outcomes researchers. Outcomes researchers consider wide dissemination of the results to providers and consumers to promote change in health care practices.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
An index of improvement has been suggested to allow better comparisons of the effectiveness of various treatments.
Looking at some form of change scores may not adequately reflect a patient's actual condition.
An index of improvement has been suggested to allow better comparisons of the effectiveness of various treatments.
Looking at percentage of improvement may not adequately reflect a patient's total condition. An index of improvement has been suggested to allow better comparisons of the effectiveness of various treatments.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
