Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Nurses with a baccalaureate degree are prepared to read research critically and use existing standards to determine the readiness of the findings for clinical practice. They also participate in research activities through identification of clinical problems in nursing practice.
Nurses with a master's degree assume the role of clinical expert and are able to create a climate in which research-based change can be implemented into practice.

Doctorally-prepared nurses are prepared to design studies independently including the develop-ment of methods of inquiry relevant to nursing.

Answer to Question 2

HIPAA regulations should not influence the area of cost in nursing research.
