Nursing Research

Situation: Nurse Aninipot would like to conduct a study on the effects of lemon grass extract and ginger extract on the blood sugar and blood pressure of two randomized group of respondents.

Before the conduct of her study, she understands that the ultimate goal of conducting nursing research is to:
a. Describe the effects of ginger and lemon grass extract on the blood sugar and blood pressure. b. Explore the phenomenon c. Predict and control the effects of the variables to each other d. To improve the nursing practice

On conducting her study the next step she would take would:
a. Identify and clarify the problem b. Review the literature of the study c. Formulate the hypothesis d. Design your framework

On gathering information on her study, she formulated the hypothesis There is the same level of blood sugar and blood pressure after lemon grass and ginger extract administration. This can be classified as:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Simple Complex Non-Directional Directional Alternative Null
2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 6 5 5 6

a. b. c. d.

She also formulated another hypothesis: The higher the volume of lemon grass extract the lower the blood pressure. As a novice researcher you could identify the correct type of research hypothesis:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Simple Complex Non-Directional Directional Alternative Null
1, 3, 5 2, 3, 5 1, 4, 5 2, 4, 5

a. b. c. d.

The independent variable on the above study is:


1. Lemon grass extract 2. Blood sugar 3. Ginger extract 4. Blood pressure
a. b. c. d. 1 and 2 1 and 3 2 and 4 2 and 3
