39
Q

Basic Research

A

- type of quantitative research
- it is used to generate and refine theory, and the findings are often not directly useful in a clinical setting

40
Q

Practical Research

A

-also called applied research
-type of quantitative research
-research designed to directly influence or improve the clinical practice

41
Q

Qualitative Nursing Research

A

-research conducted to gain insight by discovering meanings

-based on the belief that reality is based on perceptions that differ for each person and change over time

-involves non numerical data

42
Q

Variable

A

something that varies and has different values that are measureable

43
Q

Dependent Variable

A

the variable being studied (determined as a result in data)

44
Q

Independent Variable

A

causes or conditions that are manipulated or identified to determine the effects on the dependent variable

45
Q

Hypothesis

A

statement of relationships between the independent and dependent variables that the researchers expect to find

46
Q

Data

A

the information that the researcher collects from subjects in the study (it is expressed as a number in quantitative research most often)

47
Q

Instruments

A

devices used to collect data (i.e. pain rating scale) that needs to be both RELIABLE and VALID

Q

Correlational Research

A

Quantitative research that examines the type or degree or relationship between 2 or more variables

51
Q

Quasi-Experimental Research

A

Quantitative research that explores cause-and-effect relationships between selected variables, often in a clinical setting, and looks at the effects of nursing intervention on patient outcome
