Answer to Question 1

A
Nurses who develop critical thinking skills make the best communicators. Just liking people does not make an effective communicator because it is important to apply critical thinking standards to ensure sound effective communication. Just learning psychomotor skills does not ensure that the nurse will use those techniques and communication involves more than psychomotor skills. Critical thinking helps the nurse overcome perceptual biases or human tendencies that interfere with accurately perceiving and interpreting messages from others. Nurses who maintain perceptual biases do not make good communicators.

Answer to Question 2

C

Feedback
A Statistical analysis with level I research questions uses mainly content analysis and descriptive statistics.
B Statistical analysis with level II research questions uses correlation or tests of association.
C Statistical analysis with level III research questions uses tests that search for differences between means, such as analysis of variance.
D Nursing research planning does not include a fourth level.
