4
What does PARiHS mean?
Promoting action on research implementation in healthy services
Promoting acting on research implementation in health services
Promoting action on research implementation in heat services
Promoting action on research implementation in health services
5
The P-value = 0.04. The results are small but statistically significant
False
True
6
These are used to determine the statistical significance of any observed differences between groups:
Median
Mean
Descriptive statistics
Inferential statistics
7
Why is it important to use frameworks such as PICOT to formulate clinical questions?
Guaranteed all relevant evidence identified
best evidence is identified quickly and efficiently
Ensures the right comparison is included within question
Helps identify patient population
8
What is the most likely consequence of implementing evidence-based practice?
Highest quality of care & best possible outcomes more likely
Patients & families will always be involved with decisions
No variation in care given to patients with same condition
All health care decisions will be based on highest quality of research
9
How is CLINICAL significance established at the outset of a research study?
By ensuring all patients can be followed up
By ensuring a sufficiently large sample can be recruited
By agreeing the level of the P-value to be used when analysing results
By determining the minimum important difference that needs to be observed
10
Which of these tests would be used to demonstrate association between ordinal variables?
Spearman’s correlation
Frequencies
Pearson’s correlation
Chi squared
11
Which of these is not a qualitative sampling method?
Convenience
Purposive
Snowball
Probability
12
Failing to identify appropriate stakeholders is likely to reduce successful implementation of findings into practice
True
False
13
Why might data from qualitative research be considered less important than data from RCT’s?
Findings from qualitative data are not usually generalisable
Findings from qualitative research based on interview data
Findings from qualitative research are not methodologically robust
Findings from qualitative data generally lack rigour
14
If a scale was developed to measure health & response categories were ‘excellent’, ‘poor’ what kind of data is collected
Nominal
Ordinal
Interval
Ratio
15
Surveys have high participation no’s,aims to answer q’s on prevalence,distribution & interrelationships of variables
True
False
16
What does the confidence interval represent?
The actual magnitude of results obtained in a study
The level of confidence that can be demonstrated about results of a study
The statistical significance of the range of values obtained from the study
Range where true value may lie,given size difference actually observed
17
What is 1 of the main functions of evidence-based practice in terms of the NMC standards regarding fitness to practice?
It ensures patients are not involved in decision making
It ensures clinical guidelines are always followed
It ensures practice remains current
Stops development of nursing and midwifery researchers of the future
18
What kind of bias is evident in an RCT when those collecting outcome data know which groups patients are allocated to?
Measurement bias
Performance bias
Attrition bias
Selection bias
19
A dependant variable is…
A variable that is contingent on that of another
A variable that is not dependent on that of another
A variable that determines the cause
A variable that predicts an outcome
20
What type of clinical question would best be answered by interpretative/qualitative research?
Questions about clinical outcomes
Questions about prognosis
Questions about meanings/experiences
Questions about diagnosis
21
What are the benefits of EIDM?
To not improve overall approach to health
Lessen gap between good research and practice
Decrease information for patients
Less effective use of resources
22
What do tests of reliability demonstrate about a test instrument?
That an instrument measures what it is supposed to measure
That an instrument reflects performance
Stability of instrument
That an instrument can be used more than once
23
Which statement is correct about inductive research?
It test hypothesis
Used a positivist approach
Generates theory
It is used in quantitative research
24
Hierarchy of evidence is top to bottom: systematic reviews,RCT,observational studies, case studies, opinions
False
True
25
Where might be a good place to find evidence-based papers
Wikipedia
Thirdly reviewed research journals
Newspapers
Reviews of primary research(Cochrane,bandolier,Evidence-based journals)
26
What is one of the main purposes of random allocation?
To promote internal and external validity
To ensure the study is double blinded
To ensure the sample size is equal between groups
To ensure the study is reliable
27
