Across 2. enhancing patient care and results. 6. to understand the underpinnings of specific natural phenomena, and to explain systematic relationships among phenomena. 10. focuses on finding solutions to existing problems. Applied research is designed to indicate how these principles can be used to solve problems in nursing practice. 12. along with dissemination of research findings, and makes patient care at the bedside more relevant and evidence based. 18. he defined Nursing Research as a scientific inquiry that validates and refines existing knowledge and generates new knowledge that directly and indirectly influences nursing practice. 19. approach involves an arrangement of the knowledge and skills within one subject area. 22. many phenomena defy explanation, yet it is frequently possible to make predictions and to control phenomena based on research findings, even in the absence of complete understanding. 24. refers to an issue or question that requires investigation and analysis. 26. a piece of equipment, a form of treatment, or an intervention strategy. 27. manifestation and factors that related to your interest topic. 28. it often emerges when different individuals or groups hold contrasting viewpoints on matters that can range from social, political, and cultural subjects. 32. it is the conclusion that can be drawn from something although it is not explicitly stated. 33. researchers observe, count, delineate, elucidate, and classify. Nurse researchers have described a wide variety of phenomena. 37. investigates the full nature of the phenomenon, the manner which it is manifested, and the other factors to which it is related. 38. refers to any concept or strategy that is derived from or informed by objective evidence—most commonly, educational research or metrics of school, teacher, and student performance. 42. provide nurses with perspectives of the normality of the phenomenon. 43. this institute, an international EBP collaborative is established in Australia. 44. it identifies the nature and attributes of a nursing phenomenon and relationships among other phenomena. 46. becomes the name of the game. Interdisciplinary collaboration of nurses with researchers in related fields (as well as intradisciplinary collaboration among nurse researchers). 47. (1948) publishes report on inadequacies of nursing education. 48. is undertaken to extend the base of knowledge in a discipline. Basic research is appropriate for discovering general principles of human behavior and biophysiological processes. 49. developing nursing knowledge.

Down 1. her landmark publication, Notes on Nursing (1859), describes her early interest in environmental factors that promote physical and emotional well-being. 2. is the combining of methods and insights of two or more academic disciplines into the pursuit of a common task, such as a research project. 3. it is a systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions. 4. it yields information that is too little and it needs to be further identified or named. 5. a type of research includes theories or prior findings that are used deductively to generate hypothesized explanations that are then tested empirically. 7. a role in promotion, prevention and cure of diseases. 8. to know their patients extensively as possible participants in a study may assist researchers in identifying appropriate information critical to the research topic. 9. it yields information that is too little and it needs to be further identified or named. 11. it is a process that has the aim of augmenting knowledge, resolving doubt, or solving a problem. 13. a lifelong condition. A genetic disorder caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21. 14. they publish guidelines on assessing research for use in practice (1976). 15. facts, information, and skills acquired by a person through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject. 16. focuses on the care of individuals and their families to help them recover from illness and maintain optimal health and quality of life. 17. in research, it is the understanding of how finding or studying one thing affects another. 20. in 1923 this University established the first doctoral program for nurses. 21. can be defined as the study of the nature of phenomena and is especially appropriate for answering questions of why something is (not) observed, assessing complex multi-component interventions, and focusing on intervention improvement. 23. issued a position paper on nursing research priorities that incorporated priorities from nursing organizations internationally. 25. structured and organized model or structure that provides a systematic way to approach a particular concept, problem, or field of study. 29. a set of printed or written questions with a choice of answers, devised for the purposes of a survey or statistical study. 30. describes the relationship between psychological and behavioral processes and the underlying physiological mechanisms. 31. supposed to be diligent and systematic requires planning, organization, and persistence, and be consistent with philosophical orientation and themes of the discipline of nursing. 34. may be used in the improvement of care and contributing to knowledge base expansion. 35. type of reasoning that is the process of developing generalizations from specific observations. 36. pertaining to the application of biological methods and ideas to the study of behavior in an attempt to understand emotions and reactions in terms of brain and physiological function. 39. an ability to perform well or achieve a result without wasted energy, resources, effort, time or money. 40. type of reasoning that is the process of developing specific predictions from general principles. 41. it is the process of using existing knowledge to draw conclusions, make predictions, or construct explanations. 45. he stated that solutions to many problems are being developed by logical reasoning, which combines experience, intellectual faculties, and formal systems of thought.
