Description
Question 1: After reading Wehbe-Alamah’s chapter 25:
a) What feelings were evoked? (See sample list of feelings under course documents)
b) What was the ONE most valuable learning gained?
(Cite specific examples, including page and paragraph number to support your statements).
c) How can you apply your new insights and learning to your current nursing practice and future anticipated APRN role or other professional practice role and setting?
d) What ONE question would you ask the researcher (Dr. Wehbe-Alamah). Why?
Question 2: Review the Domains of Inquiry: Suggested Inquiry Modes (Chapter 4)
Using ONE of your assigned domains of inquiry (DOI) contemplate how the suggested inquiry modes (questions and/or lead-in statements) could be incorporated in NP or CNS practice. MY ASSIGNED DOI IS 7 & 12 CHOOSE ONE ONLY, Then:
a) Identify the DOI selected and why you selected this one over the other assigned DOI. (1-2 sentences)
b-1) Discuss how and why 1 or 2 of the suggested inquiry modes (questions and/or lead-in statements) could (how) and should (why) be incorporated in NP practice.
OR
b-2) Discuss how and why 1 or 2 of the suggested inquiry modes (questions and/or lead-in statements) cannot and should not be incorporated in NP practice.
OR
b-3) Discuss how and why 1 or 2 of the suggested inquiry modes (questions and/or lead-in statements) can be modified and should be modified for easy incorporation in NP practice.
OR
b-4) Present a new suggested inquiry mode (question and/or lead-in statement) that fits with your DOI and CCT. Include how and why it could and should be incorporated in NP practice.
(Cite specific sections, pages, etc., from the readings to substantiate your position and assist classmates in dialogue and discussion. Be sure to label which option “b” you selected).
Question 3: A nurse states, “Leininger’s enablers are only relevant to researchers using the CCT and ethnonursing research methodology. They have no relevance to nurses in clinical practice. How do they help in understanding patient-family-community health care provider-nurse relationships? How do they guide clinical practice decision-making and actions in primary care settings?”
Assume the role of an advanced practice nurse (APRN) working in a hospital unit or in an NP outpatient clinic center.
a) How does the nurse’s statement make you feel? (Use sample list of feelings).
b) How would you respond to the nurse? (Use a conversational tone and put your response in quotation marks. Be sure to incorporate rationale from this course’s assigned readings, videos, and/or websites to strengthen your response. Also be sure to provide the name of at least ONE of Leininger’s enablers and elaborate upon how this supports your response statement).
Question 4: After reading all assigned readings, review Chapter 4 and your notes again. Select 3 of the following questions and discuss each in 2-5 sentences. Be sure to indicate the page, paragraph, quote, or section. Use a different example or section for each selected question.
Concerning the ethnonursing research method (ERM) as described in Chapter 4:
a) What was the most complex for you to comprehend? Why?
b) What was the easiest for you to comprehend and apply to your immediate and future APRN role? Why?
c) What intrigued you the most? Why?
d) What did you like most? Why?
e) What did you like least? Why?
f) What was the muddiest point? Why?
g) What question would you like to ask about the ERM? Why?
Certification Exam Prep – (Synthesized Learning Application)
After completing all of this week’s assigned readings and videos, follow the recommended steps for answering exam questions.
For your discussion board post:
a) Copy and paste the question below.
b) Write the rationale for why an answer is correct or incorrect beneath the response option. Begin your response with “this option is correct because…. Or this option is incorrect because…..”
c) Discuss any feelings you experienced as you worked through the process of answering the question. (See sample list of feelings).
d) Discuss any thoughts you had as you worked through the process of answering the question.
A nurse practitioner is searching the literature for evidence-based best practices and discovers a relevant study. The researcher identified the research methodology as ERM. The NP proceeds to critique the study for research rigor and quality before applying research findings in practice. Which of the following indicates inconsistency with ERM and raises questions about research rigor and quality?
a) a permission statement was included beneath the Leininger’s Sunrise Enabler to Discover Culture Care illustration.
b) the researcher used a pre-determined sample size of 50 key informants and 25 general informants.
c) historical documents, pictures, and other documents from informants were included as part of the data collection process.
d) transferability of results to a similar context was considered at the end of the study rather than at the beginning.
