Question 2

Which document provides guidelines on research involving Indigenous&#160;&#160;persons, and the use of vulnerable populations in general? &#160;&#10;A)Tri Council Policy Statement &#160;&#10;B)CNA Code of Ethics &#160;&#10;C)Nuremberg Code &#160;&#10;D)Declaration of Helsinki

Accepted Answer

The Tri Council Policy Statement provides guidelines on research involving Indigenous persons, as well as the use of vulnerable populations in general. The CNA Code of Ethics focuses specifically on nursing ethics, while the Nuremberg Code and Declaration of Helsinki are historical documents that provided ethical guidance for research but do not address these specific populations in the same way as the Tri Council Policy Statement.

Question 3

Which of the following statements is an example of ethical treatment of data? &#160;&#10;A)removal of invalid research values and entries &#160;&#10;B)authentically describing the experiences of others &#160;&#10;C)adjustment of facts for positive outcomes &#160;&#10;D)episodic treatment of vulnerable participants

Accepted Answer

Authentically describing the experiences of others is an example of ethical treatment of data as it involves accurately representing the data collected without manipulation or bias.

Question 4

A nurse researcher decides to discontinue a research project because the findings indicate that the risks of the study outweigh the benefits. Which principle is the nurse researcher applying? &#160;&#10;A)beneficence &#160;&#10;B)justice &#160;&#10;C)trustworthiness &#160;&#10;D)confidentiality

Accepted Answer

The principle of beneficence requires healthcare providers and researchers to pursue actions that bring about good and minimize harm. In this case, the nurse researcher is applying the principle of beneficence by discontinuing the study because the risks outweigh the benefits.

Question 5

Which of the following characteristics of ethical research goes beyond the protection of human rights? &#160;&#10;A)scientific objectivity &#160;&#10;B)scientific competitiveness &#160;&#10;C)indifference &#160;&#10;D)personal gain

Accepted Answer

Scientific objectivity goes beyond the protection of human rights as it ensures that research is conducted impartially and without bias. This includes the use of reliable methods, accurate data collection and interpretation, and transparency of results. The other options do not relate to ethical research practices. Scientific competitiveness and personal gain can even be considered unethical if they result in the exploitation or harm of research subjects. Indifference towards research subjects would also be unethical.

Question 6

Whose integrity and honesty are of the utmost importance in the ethical treatment of data? &#160;&#10;A)statistician &#160;&#10;B)participants &#160;&#10;C)researcher &#160;&#10;D)data collector

Accepted Answer

The integrity and honesty of the researcher are of the utmost importance in the ethical treatment of data. It is the responsibility of the researcher to ensure that the data is collected, analyzed, and reported accurately and honestly. The researcher must adhere to ethical guidelines, maintain confidentiality of the data, and avoid any biases or conflicts of interest.

Question 7

Which of the following characteristics may a nurse experience when participating in conducting research? &#160;&#10;A)academic dishonesty &#160;&#10;B)personal bias &#160;&#10;C)misrepresentation &#160;&#10;D)role conflict

Accepted Answer

Participating in research may pose a risk of role conflict for the nurse, as they may have to balance their responsibilities as a researcher with their primary role as a caregiver. Academic dishonesty, personal bias, and misrepresentation are not desirable characteristics for a nurse conducting research, and should be avoided.

Question 8

Which document was developed to set forth principles for the ethical conduct of research in response to human rights violations during the Second World War? &#160;&#10;A)World Humanities Research &#160;&#10;B)CNA Code of Ethics &#160;&#10;C)Nuremberg Code &#160;&#10;D)Declaration of Helsinki

Accepted Answer

The Nuremberg Code was developed in response to the unethical experimentation on human subjects during the Second World War, particularly by Nazi doctors. It set forth principles for the ethical conduct of research involving human subjects, and emphasized the need for voluntary informed consent and avoidance of harm. The Declaration of Helsinki, developed later in 1964, built upon the Nuremberg Code and further clarified guidelines for medical research involving human subjects. The World Humanities Research and CNA Code of Ethics are not directly related to the development of ethical principles for research involving human subjects.

Question 9

Which of the following does a nurse researcher include in the research protocol to protect human rights? &#160;&#10;A)the right to have no risk involved &#160;&#10;B)the right to be assigned to any group &#160;&#10;C)the right to autonomy &#160;&#10;D)the right to free medical care

Accepted Answer

The right to autonomy is a fundamental human right that must be included in any research involving human subjects. This means that individuals have the right to make their own decisions and should not be coerced or influenced in any way. The other options are not necessary to protect human rights in research. The level of risk involved in a study will vary, and participants should be fully informed of any potential risks before consenting to participate. Participants should also be assigned to groups in a fair and equitable manner, based on established criteria. Finally, while free medical care is desirable, it is not a fundamental human right that needs to be protected in research.

Question 10

Which of the following issues affect academic integrity? &#160;&#10;A)plagiarism and cheating &#160;&#10;B)cheating and editing &#160;&#10;C)editing and fidelity &#160;&#10;D)forgery and consulting

Accepted Answer

Plagiarism refers to presenting someone else's work or ideas as one's own, which is a clear violation of academic integrity. Cheating involves using unauthorized aids or seeking assistance from others during an assessment. Both plagiarism and cheating are common issues that breach academic integrity principles.
