Basic Nursing 1st Edition by Judith Wilkinson, Leslie Treas

Exercise 1

minutes to sit quietly and think about nursing research. Do you have an idea or a problem you would like to see investigated with a research project? If nothing comes to mind quickly, then ponder for a few moments more. Write the information on a sheet of paper. Take the time to do your best thinking. Then share what you have written with your instructor and other students.
• What would you like to have more information about in nursing? Explain why it is a problem or what brought about your idea.
• If you were the research assistant on a nursing research project on your topic, what one-sentence problem statement would you write regarding your research idea?
• What is the purpose of doing this research project? Why should it be done?
