Answer to Question 1

D
The scope note contains a definition of the term being searched.
The scope note does not describe the best searching strategies for a topic.
The scope note does not describe how far back in time citations for this topic go.
The scope note does not describe the breadth of the scope of the topic being searched.

Answer to Question 2

B
Electronic databases such as CINAHL will provide the student access to a comprehensive set of journals going back for many years. In these databases, the student can query key words and phrases to find information on the topic quickly.
Although it might be important to find research articles related to the topic (depending on what the topic is), research instruments themselves will not provide a lot of information.
Indexes are a good way to find out about the topics in a book or journal, but this is a time- consuming process and limited to information only in that specific book or journal.
The newspaper might have information important to the student's paper, but the information will be limited to this one source.
