Question 1
A Family Nurse Practitioner believes that he has developed an
intervention that can accelerate weight loss in adults with Type II
diabetes when administered with a healthy diet. He recruits 25
participants from a local church. He obtains each participant’s
weight prior to beginning the intervention (of a walking program
alternating with resistance training). After a month of the treatment,
all of the participants are weighed again. Which statistical test
should the researcher select to determine the effect of his
intervention on weight loss?

2
A nurse in a cardiovascular ICU developed an intervention that she
believes can reduce patient time on the ventilator post-operatively.
She recruits study participants from the offices of cardiovascular
surgeons. She randomizes the participants to two groups, a
treatment group and a control group. She provides a novel teaching
intervention along with a spirometer to each participant in the
treatment group one week prior to their surgery.
Participants in the control group received customary care. After
each participant’s surgery, the researcher records the number of
hours that they are on the ventilator post-operatively. Which
statistical test should she select to determine the effects of her
intervention on time spent on ventilator post-operatively?

A nurse is reading a journal article on the effects of patient incivility on nursing
burn-out. The results of the study were r = 0.50, p = .04 (with alpha set at .05). The
nurse correctly summarizes that:
there is no relationship between patient incivility and nursing burn-out.
there is a weak relationship between patient incivility and nursing burn-out.
there is a moderate relationship between patient incivility and nursing burn-
out.
