Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Qualitative research strives for an understanding of the whole and requires the researcher to become the instrument as data is collected in the real-world, naturalistic setting. Numerical data, cause and effect and control of personal bias are key aspects of quantitative research.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Evidence-based nursing practice (EBNP) is the conscientious, explicit, and judicious use of research-based information in making decisions about the delivery of care. EBNP does not include institutional practice, authoritative nursing, or factual-based nursing.
